Nell’immaginario collettivo, nella letteratura e, ovviamente, nella produzione cinematografica e mediale, il robot ricopre tutt’oggi un ruolo piuttosto significativo. L’automa, il mostro metà umano e metà meccanico, il cyborg, gli umanoidi, gli androidi e le differenti forme di automazione e di intelligenza che si relazionano con gli uomini sono le declinazioni più comuni e fortunate che il mondo della Science Fiction ha saputo creare e raccontare. In altro campo, l’ingegneria robotica ha ormai intrapreso la strada per lo sviluppo, anche su larga scala, di sistemi robotizzati da inserire nel nostro quotidiano. In questo senso, si possono individuare robot sviluppati per un determinato scopo (sia professionale sia d’intrattenimento) e macchine in grado di esistere e di costruire con l’umano un rapporto sempre più simile a quello che si potrebbe avere tra gruppi di amici. Così, l’immaginario della Science Fiction, spesso orientato a fornire letture distopiche della tecnologia e dell’automa, è affiancato dalla produzione di una robotica capace di collaborare con l’uomo per farci esperire il mondo che ci circonda. Il volume muove dal desiderio di introdurre euristicamente il robot come medium, secondo alcune categorie epistemiche degli studi sui media e sull’audiovisivo, chiedendosi altresì se non sia possibile ipotizzare una sua natura di dispositivo (di trasmissione, visione, registrazione, inscrizione, soggettivizzazione). Con lo scopo di offrire una lettura mediologica della robotica, i contributi qui raccolti presentano differenti declinazioni (dall’archeologia e dall’antropologia dei media a letture neuro-cognitive; da elementi di teoria del film e di cultura visuale al dialogo tra le arti e l’automazione; dal ritorno, prepotente e indispensabile, dell’immaginario all’impiego della macchina nei settori produttivi della società) fornendo un’analisi di ampio respiro e nuovi spunti di riflessione sul processo evolutivo che l’uomo può vivere relazionandosi e rispecchiandosi in un suo simile tecnologico, meccanico e sempre più orientato a sentire empaticamente la presenza dell’umano al suo fianco. Con i contributi di (in ordine alfabetico): Nicolas Bilchi, Anna Bisogno, Diego Cavallotti, Matthew Crippen, Lorenzo Denicolai, Ruggero Eugeni, Giacomo Nencioni, Francesco Parisi, Maria Teresa Soldani, Mario Tirino.

How to develop robots that will be more like humans and less like computers, more social than machine-like, and more playful and less programmed. Most robots are not very friendly. They vacuum the rug, mow the lawn, dispose of bombs, even perform surgery—but they aren't good conversationalists. It's difficult to make eye contact. If the future promises more human-robot collaboration in both work and play, wouldn't it be better if the robots were less mechanical and more social? In How to Grow a Robot, Mark Lee explores how robots can be more human-like, friendly, and engaging. Developments in artificial intelligence—notably Deep Learning—are widely seen as the foundation on which our robot future will be built. These advances have already brought us self-driving cars and chess match–winning algorithms. But, Lee writes, we need robots that are perceptive, animated, and responsive—more like humans and less like computers, more social than machine-like, and more playful and less programmed. The way to achieve this, he argues, is to “grow” a robot so that it learns from experience—just as infants do. After describing “what's wrong with artificial intelligence” (one key shortcoming: it's not embodied), Lee presents a different approach to building human-like robots: developmental robotics, inspired by developmental psychology and its accounts of early infant behavior. He describes his own experiments with the iCub humanoid robot and its development from newborn helplessness to ability levels equal to a nine-month-old, explaining how the iCub learns from its own experiences. AI robots are designed to know humans as objects; developmental robots will learn empathy. Developmental robots, with an internal model of “self,” will be better interactive partners with humans. That is the kind of future technology we should work toward.

Human–Robot Interaction in Social Robotics explores important issues in designing a robot system that works with people in everyday environments. Edited by leading figures in the field of social robotics, it draws on contributions by researchers working on the Robovie project at the ATR Intelligent Robotics and Communication Laboratories, a world leader in humanoid interactive robotics. The book brings together, in one volume, technical and empirical research that was previously scattered throughout the literature. Taking a networked robot approach, the book examines how robots work in cooperation with ubiquitous sensors and people over telecommunication networks. It considers the use of social robots in daily life, grounding the work in field studies conducted at a school, train station, shopping mall, and science museum. Critical in the development of network robots, these usability studies allow researchers to discover real issues that need to be solved and to understand what kinds of services are possible. The book tackles key areas where development is needed, namely, in sensor networks for tracking humans and robots, humanoids that can work in everyday environments, and functions for interacting with people. It introduces a sensor network developed by the authors and discusses innovations in the Robovie humanoid, including several interactive behaviors and design policies. Exploring how humans interact with robots in daily life settings, this book offers valuable insight into how robots may be used in the future. The combination of engineering, empirical, and field studies provides readers with rich information to guide in developing practical interactive robots.
