Abstract

This paper presents the influence of robot appearance on perception. The goal is to come to an initial understanding of what design and features of robots affect people. We explore the differences how people perceive pet, service, humanoid and android robots. The associations, associated tasks, perception, fears and expectations towards the four different types are evaluated.
