Non-Speech Aural Communication for Robots.

摘要

Synthesized or pre-recorded speech is often used for com-munication from robots to humans. In many situations, it may be unnecessary to use speech since much of the infor-mation which robots must communicate is often very simple and context-sensitive. In this paper we hypothesize that non-speech aural communication may be more effective in many situations, and we present an experiment to test the effective-ness of non-verbal communication.
