Abstract

Problem statement

Due to the Covid Pandemic, a lot of people have to work at home. Also children are at home and adults don’t have the time to work the whole day. Design a child friendly robot that can keep a toddler safe for an hour/longer.

Research fields: In order to make a childfriendly robot, there should be looked into the etics about child-robot interaction. A clear list of warnings and guidelines should be made for the parents to safely use a robot in their home. Also it should be researched whether parents would even buy a robot as nanny. Also a businessplan should be made for the robot. (costs etc).

The robot has to monitor the child at all times = Privacy and Data safety etics
The robot should react on the emotions of a child to keep it at peace = Human-Robot interaction / Child-Robot interaction etics
The robot should function as a buddy to play with = Child-Robot interaction etics
An extra option could be an educational function, so that the child also learns something during playtime = Human-Robot education etics
What are the users, are there any users that would use a nanny-bot? And what are the advantages and disadvantages for the users involved
How much should a nanny-bot cost in order to be reasonable?

Technical design: A child-friendly robot should be designed, the technical aspect will mainly focus on the housing of the robot. So it will mainly focus on the hardware rather than the software.

What robot-shape is childfriendly?
How strong should the robot be?
How should the robot move smoothly?
