Abstract

With the increase in robot complexity and the diversity of domains in which we encounter robots, there is an increased need for research focusing on more varied aspects of human-robot interaction. While most research has focused on the dyadic interaction (one-to-one) between one human and one robot, we are currently observing a paradigm shift towards increased attention to HRI in non-dyadic systems. However, we still have limited knowledge of which interaction techniques work well for non-dyadic HRI combining human participants with multiple digital artefacts, including robots. We investigate what characterises non-dyadic HRI in various contexts, including the home and industry, and how the addition of robots affects how we interact in groups. This paper presents our research questions, preliminary results, and plans for future studies, thereby contributing to a better understanding of the concepts and interaction techniques in non-dyadic interaction in human-robot groups in various contexts.
