Effects of different types of artifacts on interpretations of artificial subtle expressions (ASEs)

So far, we already confirmed that the artificial subtle expressions (ASEs) from a robot could convey its internal states to participants accurately and intuitively. In this paper, we investigated whether the ASEs from an on-screen artifact could also convey the artifact's internal states to participants in order to confirm whether the ASEs can be interpreted consistently for various types of artifacts. The results clearly showed that the ASEs' interpretations from on-screen artifact were consistent with the ones from robotic agent.
