Användarcentrerad design av en uppsökande robot (Swedish)
Abstract [en]

The goal of this project is to involve adolescents in the design of their own social robots, and to explore their concerns and opinions about social robots during the design process. To support their design efforts, I have developed a digital toolkit that includes features for customizing the appearance, personality, and reactive behaviors of the robots. In addition, this paper presents some of the adolescents’ views on gender and robots that were elicited during the project. The insights and feedback from the participants can inform the design of future outreach robots and improve their social interactions with adolescents.

Abstract [sv]

Målet med detta projekt är att involvera ungdomar i designen av sina egna sociala robotar, och att utforska deras oro och åsikter om sociala robotar under designprocessen. För att stödja deras designinsatser har jag utvecklat en digital verktygslåda som innehåller funktioner för att anpassa robotarnas utseende, personlighet och reaktiva beteenden. Dessutom presenterar denna artikel några av ungdomarnas syn på genus och robotar som framkallades under projektet. Insikterna och feedbacken från deltagarna kan informera om utformningen av framtida uppsökande robotar och förbättra deras sociala interaktion med ungdomar.
