By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News-Current study results on robotics have been published. According to news reporting from Chemnitz, Germany, by NewsRx j ournalists, research stated, "We explore an alternative approach to the design o f robots that deviates from the common envisionment of having one unified agent. " Financial supporters for this research include Volkswagen Foundation. Our news reporters obtained a quote from the research from Technische Universita t Chemnitz: "What if robots are depicted as an agentic ensemble where agency is distributed over different components? In the project presented here, we investi gate the potential contributions of this approach to creating entertaining and j oyful human-robot interaction (HRI), which also remains comprehensible to human observers. We built a service robot-which takes care of plants as a Plant-Wateri ng Robot (PWR)-that appears as a small ship controlled by a robotic captain acco mpanied by kinetic elements. The goal of this narrative design, which utilizes a distributed agency approach, is to make the robot entertaining to watch and fos ter its acceptance. We discuss the robot's design rationale and present observat ions from an exploratory study in two contrastive settings, on a university camp us and in a care home for people with dementia, using a qualitative video-based approach for analysis. Our observations indicate that such a design has potentia l regarding the attraction, acceptance, and joyfulness it can evoke."
