Abstract

Recent developments in robotics enable advanced human-robot interaction. Especially interactions of novice users with robots are often unpredictable and, therefore, demand for novel methods for the analysis of the interaction in systemic ways. We propose Systemic Interaction Analysis (SInA) as a method to jointly analyze system level and interaction level in an integrated manner using one tool. The approach allows us to trace back patterns that deviate from prototypical interaction sequences to the distinct system components of our autonomous robot. In this paper, we exemplarily apply the method to the analysis of the follow behavior of our domestic robot BIRON. The analysis is the basis to achieve our goal of improving human-robot interaction iteratively.
