Abstract

This paper examines the appropriateness of natural language dialogue (NLD) with assistive robots. Assistive robots are defined in terms of an existing human-robot interaction taxonomy. A decision support procedure is outlined for assistive technology researchers and practitioners to evaluate the appropriateness of NLD in assistive robots. Several conjectures are made on when NLD may be appropriate as a human-robot interaction mode.
