Abstract

Motivation -- Explore and refine qualitative methods of video prototyping in Human-Robot Interaction in order to evaluate user experience of prototype systems. Research approach -- An exploratory, scenario based study, in which participants were interviewed following some specific guidelines regarding the interviewing technique. Findings/Design -- The results offer insights into how the context of a presented interaction through video impacts on participants' opinions and attitudes towards a particular interaction, and foster a reflection concerning the wider implications of a system. Take away message -- The use of evocation in open-ended interviews regarding user experience of video prototypes is a valuable tool for research.
