Abstract

Research has shown that the form of a telepresence robot can affect the thoughts and behaviour of both the operators and individuals interacting with the robot, however there has been little research into how potential users perceive the various forms of robot in a range of social contexts. This paper reports on a survey study which sought to investigate this topic. The study finds that perceptions of suitability differ across the various forms of telepresence robot and that perceptions of suitability for specific activities were affected by gender.
