About
Taisuke Miyake is a pioneering researcher in human-robot interaction, with a focused interest in child-robot social dynamics and the design of socially assistive robots. His most significant contribution is the development of the **Sociable Trash Box (STB)**, a novel, child-dependent robot designed to encourage prosocial behavior by collecting trash in public spaces. Miyake’s core research explores how robots can convey an **intentional stance** to children, using affiliation behaviors to build social rapport and motivate collaborative tasks. His foundational work, "STB: Child-Dependent Sociable Trash Box" (2011), has garnered over 65 citations, establishing it as a key reference in the field. Through field studies, Miyake investigated children’s interactive patterns and interpersonal spheres, demonstrating how robots can facilitate asynchronous assistance and environmental stewardship. His research bridges developmental psychology and robotics, offering insights into designing machines that not only perform tasks but also foster meaningful, child-driven social engagement.
