Abstract

Social robots increasingly find their way into homes, especially to target families with small children. These commercially available robots are becoming widely accessible, but the research on them was largely confined to a lab or classroom environment, and their long-term use is rarely studied. Moreover, while child-robot interactions in many domains such as education and health are widely explored, little is known about how family context influences the children's perception of a social robot in their home environment and their interaction in day-to-day activities. In this paper, we proposed a longitudinal study that looks at the interaction between children and their home reading companion robot - Luka. Children's interaction and perception of the robot, along with the influence of their family context will be measured and evaluated over time.
