Jon the Robot Goes Hollywood

摘要

Stand-up comedy performance is one interesting environment in which to evaluate social robot abilities; the natural format and expectations of the art form make it well suited for experimentation. We brought Jon the Robot, our autonomous robotic stand-up comedian, to over 20 performances in Los Angeles and recorded video footage from some of these performances. Our video is an entertaining compilation of this footage in a mock movie trailer format, including light details about the capabilities of the system.
