联络、保障和福祉:分析社交机器人在COVID-19大流行期间的作用
Liaison, safeguard, and well-being: analyzing the role of social robots during the COVID-19 pandemic
摘要:
我们研究了在COVID-19大流行期间社交机器人在现实世界中的应用。特别是,我们分析了社交机器人正在采用的领域,正在履行的角色和任务,以及正在实施的机器人模型。为此,我们追溯并分析了自冠状病毒爆发以来全球采用的86种不同社交机器人的240个部署案例。我们发现,在此期间,社交机器人的采用与使用该技术进行危机管理密切相关。社交机器人能够发挥联络作用,以尽量减少人类之间的直接接触,确保无传染风险的环境,以及保护身心健康的健康教练,这是解释在这种情况下采用的关键。该研究的结果提供了社交机器人在大流行期间在现实生活环境中使用的完整概述。
英文摘要:
We examine the implementation of social robots in real-world settings during the COVID-19 pandemic. In particular, we analyze the areas in which social robots are being adopted, the roles and tasks being fulfilled, and the robot models being implemented. For this, we traced back and analyzed 240 deployment cases with 86 different social robots worldwide that have been adopted since the coronavirus outbreak. We found that social robot adoption during this period was strongly related to the use of this technology for crisis management. The social robots' capacity to perform the roles of liaison to minimize direct contact among humans, safeguard to ensure contagion risk-free environments, and well-being coach to protect mental and physical health, is key to explaining adoption within this context. The results of the study offer a complete overview of social robots' utilization in real life settings during the pandemic.
