商品描述

Description:

Cynthia Breazeal here presents her vision of the sociable robot of the future, a synthetic creature and not merely a sophisticated tool. A sociable robot will be able to understand us, to communicate and interact with us, to learn from us and grow with us. It will be socially intelligent in a humanlike way. Eventually sociable robots will assist us in our daily lives, as collaborators and companions. Because the most successful sociable robots will share our social characteristics, the effort to make sociable robots is also a means for exploring human social intelligence and even what it means to be human.

Breazeal defines the key components of social intelligence for these machines and offers a framework and set of design issues for their realization. Much of the book focuses on a nascent sociable robot she designed named Kismet. Breazeal offers a concrete implementation for Kismet, incorporating insights from the scientific study of animals and people, as well as from artistic disciplines such as classical animation. This blending of science, engineering, and art creates a lifelike quality that encourages people to treat Kismet as a social creature rather than just a machine. The book includes a CD-ROM that shows Kismet in action.

Cynthia L. Breazeal is Assistant Professor of Media Arts and Sciences at the MIT Media Lab.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

描述：
Cynthia Breazeal 在此提出她對未來社交機器人的願景，這是一種合成生物，而不僅僅是一個複雜的工具。社交機器人將能夠理解我們，與我們溝通和互動，從我們身上學習並與我們共同成長。它將以類人方式具備社交智慧。最終，社交機器人將作為合作者和伴侶，協助我們的日常生活。因為最成功的社交機器人將分享我們的社交特徵，因此製作社交機器人的努力也是探索人類社交智慧，甚至是成為人類的意義的一種方式。

Breazeal 定義了這些機器社交智慧的關鍵組成部分，並提供了一個框架和一系列設計問題以實現它們。本書的主要內容集中在她設計的一個新興社交機器人 Kismet 上。Breazeal 為 Kismet 提供了一個具體的實現方案，結合了對動物和人類的科學研究見解，以及來自於古典動畫等藝術學科的靈感。這種科學、工程和藝術的融合創造出一種逼真的特質，鼓勵人們將 Kismet 視為一個社交生物，而不僅僅是一台機器。本書附有一張 CD-ROM，展示 Kismet 的實際運作。

Cynthia L. Breazeal 是麻省理工學院媒體實驗室媒體藝術與科學的助理教授。
