Abstract
Our daily household activities are supported by many complicated home appliances whose functions are difficult to learn. In order to clearly explain the functions of home appliances to users, we design attachable agential triggers to render home appliances as explanatory agents. We detail how our application helps explain the use of home appliances to users. Our proposed robotic arms are easier to use than previously used attachable arms in order to point to a home appliance.
