Improvement in mutual interaction between robot and person for attachment behavior of robot

To sustain effective and long-term human-robot communications, we propose a robot behavior model based on dog behavior in human-dog relationships. The model includes behavioral factors that produce different behavioral characteristics. In this study, we improved the "play with the owner" behavior, which is the only mutual interaction between a person and the robot among the robot\´s attachment behaviors. We evaluated the attachment behavior with the improved "play with the person" behavior.
