Abstract

The purpose of an entertainment robot is to provide intimacy and enjoyment for people rather than to give any function. Therefore, personality design as well as emotion design is necessary for an entertainment robot. When we endow an entertainment robot personality, it gives a robot the consistency and the distinction of behavior. The purpose of this paper is to suggest a design process for constructing personality of an entertainment robot based on psychological types, and investigate user preferences for robot personalities according to the users’ psychological types. Four temperaments derived from 16 personality types in a psychological type Indicator, MBTI(Myers Briggs Type Indicator), were applied to design the personality of an entertainment robot. The process is composed of four stepsconcept design of an entertainment robot, situation scene design and perception device design, reaction design based on temperaments, and demonstration of robot temperaments in terms of reaction and via experiments.
