TL;DR
This paper explores implicit collaboration between humans and a drawing robot through dance movements, demonstrating a Wizard-of-Oz setup to understand creative interaction in computational fabrication.
Contribution
It introduces a novel exploratory approach to human-robot collaboration via movement, focusing on implicit interaction in creative fabrication contexts.
Findings
Participants engaged in collaborative drawing with the robot.
Insights into user experience with mixed-initiative fabrication machines.
Initial results inform future design of implicit collaborative systems.
Abstract
In this demonstration, we exhibit the initial results of an ongoing body of exploratory work, investigating the potential for creative machines to communicate and collaborate with people through movement as a form of implicit interaction. The paper describes a Wizard-of-Oz demo, where a hidden wizard controls an AxiDraw drawing robot while a participant collaborates with it to draw a custom postcard. This demonstration aims to gather perspectives from the computational fabrication community regarding how practitioners of fabrication with machines experience interacting with a mixed-initiative collaborative machine.
