Towards Social Intelligence in Autonomous Robotics: A Review

This paper aims to provide grounding for the development of social intelligence in autonomous mobile robots by highlighting that little has been done in developing an explicit social framework for a team of robots engaged in collaborative work. Only recently has work been undertaken on developing social attributes and functionality in robotics [23] [16]. This review provides a somewhat historical perspective of artificial intelligence research in autonomous mobile robotics from classical approaches through “New AI” to a discussion of the foundation issues for implementing a degree of explicit social functionality. Key-Words: Social robots, social intelligence, embodiment, emotion
