This mini-review describes aspects of human-robot interaction to be taken into account when designing humanoid robots with novel roles and social abilities. Humanoid robotics is gradually taking novel roles and is performing tasks usually referred to by people as “professional”. Author proposes to keep in mind the tendency of people to animate creatures as part of their internal confidence with the external living and non-living world. The perspective is designing based on the social level of human-robot interaction process or on modelling attitude - friendly, supportive and empathic - which can be a valuable aim for humanoid robotics.
An especially designed study has revealed that, unlike the common view “that robots should do dangerous, dirty or dull jobs; public opinion favors the view that robots should perform tasks requiring memorization, keen perceptual skills and service orientation. People are preferred for occupations that require artistry, evaluation, judgment and diplomacy”.
