+ | |||
+ | Key areas of the research will focus on are: | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==Long term companions== | ||
+ | Robots and agents which build up a long term relationship with their users. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==Agent migration== | ||
+ | In order to maintain a long term companionship, | ||
+ | * Mobile robot | ||
+ | * Fixed robot | ||
+ | * Handheld device | ||
+ | * Fixed graphical system | ||
+ | |||
+ | This migration between these devices, and how people relate to this migration is a core element of the research. | ||
