Human-Robot Interaction: Changes in Perception Towards a Socially Assistive Robot by Variating the Anthropomorphism Level in Cardiac Rehabilitation Scenario

Abstract

Several studies have shown the positive impact of the use of a social assistance robot (SAR) in cardiac rehabilitation (CR) programs. However, SARs carry significant ethical risks associated with their anthropomorphic characteristics.

Varios estudios han demostrado el impacto positivo del uso de un robot de asistencia social (SAR) en los programas de rehabilitación cardíaca (RC). Sin embargo, los SAR conllevan importantes riesgos éticos asociados con sus características antropomórficas.
