abstract = {With increasingly more present and complex applications of automation, its relationship to the user has become a subject of more study and discussion. Although there are many benefits of automation, there are also several challenges in designing automation that successfully fulfills its tasks and is well accepted among users. Although the tension between technology automation and user autonomy is highly discussed in professional circles, it is rarely presented in an understandable way to laypeople. To convey this topic, we created an experience that allows people to feel the difference between automation and user autonomy firsthand. Current research promotes finding a balance between automation and autonomy, and we used these keywords to guide the experience with our artifact. People and the system were both required to find balance in between their interactions, as well as literally in the tilt of the sitting position on the interactive Controlling Chair. During a one-day exhibition, we assessed the experience with people who interacted with the chair and observed how it helped them better understand the topic and reflect on its relevance to their own lives.},

abstract = {Tongueness is an interactive physical installation questioning traditional interaction modalities by embracing the act of licking as an intimate and exploratory form of engagement with technology. It is an Odd Interactions artifact consisting of a handheld device with the interface and an on-screen visualisation providing feedback. In this paper, we present our motivations behind Tongueness, the technical implementation of the interface, and impressions gathered at an exhibition and in an online survey. We use Tongueness to explore the opportunities and limitations of integrating licking interfaces in our everyday lives and conclude with a discussion on the roles of context, familiarity, social acceptability, the importance of experience, explore playfulness and sexuality, and finally propose key takeaways for future applications of licking interfaces.},

abstract = {People's willingness to help robots has been explored in the lab and in the wild in various settings. While previous studies relied on robotic prototypes, service robots are now already deployed in public spaces. This presents a novel and exciting opportunity for human-robot interaction (HRI) scholars to study robotic technologies in the context of their deployment. In this paper, we present the qualitative methodology and the outcomes of an exploratory mixed-methods (observations, autoethnography, online content analysis) study of people voluntarily helping commercially deployed delivery robots in Tallinn, Estonia. Based on the cumulative findings of the three methods, we discuss how spontaneous help towards robots manifested, the situational factors that may have contributed to the observed helping behaviors, and the role that the perceptions of the robots as cute and helpful may have played in these interactions. While our findings support the assumption that human help is a reasonable mitigation strategy to overcoming the challenges service robots may face in uncontrolled environments, we also emphasize the importance of considering the ethical implications when commercial technology relies in part on passersby to succeed in its tasks.},

abstract = {Focusing on human experience of vulnerability in everyday life interaction scenarios is still a novel approach. So far, only a proof-of-concept online study has been conducted, and to extend this work, we present a follow-up online study. We consider in more detail how human experience of vulnerability caused by a trust violation through a privacy breach affects trust ratings in an interaction scenario with the PEPPER robot assisting with clothes shopping. We report the results from 32 survey responses and 11 semi-structured interviews. Our findings reveal the existence of the privacy paradox also for studying trust in HRI, which is a common observation describing a discrepancy between the stated privacy concerns by people and their behavior to safeguard it. Moreover, we reflect that participants considered only the added value of utility and entertainment when deciding whether or not to interact with the robot again, but not the privacy breach. We conclude that people might tolerate an untrustworthy robot even when they are feeling vulnerable in the everyday life situation of clothes shopping.},

The project iBridge integrates in its framework several different out-school activities with the concrete development of a prototypical service assistant (a cuddly toy robot) for seniors. During the study, the self-efficacy is measured with questionnaires. Students' communication skill is demonstrated during interviews and in their interactions training elderly people in computer technology. Collaboration skills and responsible work efforts are manifested in their team efforts to develop a robotic prototype. The study also shows different outcomes for students participating in iBridge and students who are not involved in the project.},

The task of the pupils is to introduce the older adults to computer technology at a Pensioners' Club and develop a sensitive cuddly toy as a service robot within a series of workshops.},
