Social Robots - Robotics and Toy Computing Minitrack

URL: https://hicss.hawaii.edu/tracks-58/decision-analytics-and-service-science/#social-robots-robotics-and-toy-computing-minitrack


Based on the past eight years of this mini-track in HICSS, the ninth year’s goal is to present both novel and industrial solutions to challenging technical issues as well as compelling use cases. This minitrack invites research and industry papers related to these specific challenges and others driving innovation in robotics and toy computing for social robots. In addition to novel and industrial solutions to challenging technical issues as well as compelling use cases, we are interested in an ever-increasing essential and critical role that robotic and toy computing technologies play in supporting social robots – a new cross-discipline research topic in social science, computer science, decision science, and information systems. With a general focus on social robots and their related robotics and toy computing, this minitrack covers related topics such as:
- Social Technical Issues
- Human Behavior Study
- Human-Robot Interaction
- Business Models
- Conceptual and Technical Architecture
- Visualization Technologies
- Modeling and Implementation
- Security, Privacy, and Trust
- Industry Standards and Solution Stacks
- Provenance Tracking Frameworks and Tools
- Case Studies (e.g., smart toys, healthcare, financial, aviation, etc.)


Extended versions of accepted papers will be invited for submission by Journal Special Issue.

Social Robots and Smart Toys Symposia
========================================
URL: https://hicss.hawaii.edu/swt/

This symposium aims to cover research issues of robotic and toy computing from both technical and non-technical perspectives, such as security, privacy, ethics, and data protection. Emerging computing technologies, trends on companion robots and smart toys will be presented. New best practices and directions in socio-technical systems will be investigated.
