Abstract
We present proto-dialog skills of an anthropomorphic robot, Kismet. The implementation is modeled after the proto-conversational skills of human infants. We have supplemented Kismet´s vocal turn-taking skills with other para-linguistic social cues. We have found that naive subjects intuitively read and use these cues to regulate the exchange, making it smoother over time
