Abstract

We have already confirmed that the artificial subtle expressions (ASEs) from a robot can accurately and intuitively convey its internal states to participants [10]. In this paper, we then experimentally investigated whether the ASEs from an on-screen artifact could also convey the artifact's internal states to participants in order to confirm whether the ASEs can be consistently interpreted regardless of the types of artifacts. The results clearly showed that the ASEs expressed from an on-screen artifact succeeded in accurately and intuitively conveying the artifact's internal states to the participants. Therefore, we confirmed that the ASEs' interpretations were consistent regardless of the types of artifacts.
