Abstract

Today's commercial robots are getting smaller and smaller. The price of robots are also getting close to the mobile phones and becoming affordable to be personal. In order to make the researchers and educationists using the personal robots in the schools and classes, this paper overviews the human-robot interaction factors, e.g. emotions and appearances, and summarizes important things needed to be noted before using the robots for educational purpose. In addition, the paper proposes five possible research directions include gender issues, appearances, humanoid or non-humanoid robots, priority of HRI factors, and interaction issues. Each direction covers several important research topics.
