Article Ratings

In the editor's mind, this article is a stub. It has a collection of interesting links, but really needs to be fleshed out before it would be a truly accurate reference. A good place to start would be to take some survey papers such as the following:

T. Fong and I. Nourbakhsh and K. Dautenhahn. A Survey of Socially Interactive Robots. Robotics and Autonomous Systems. 42. (3-4). 143-166. 2003.
P. H. Kahn and H. Ishiguro and B. Friedman and T. Kanda. What is a Human? -- Toward Psychological Benchmarks in the Field of Human-Robot Interaction. IEEE Proceedings of the International Workshop on Robot and Human Interactive Communication (RO-MAN). Hatfield, UK. Sep. 2006.
Scholtz, J.. Evaluation methods for human-system performance of intelligent systems.. Proceedings of the 2002 Performance Metrics for Intelligent Systems (PerMIS) Workshop. Gaithersburg, MD. 2002.
Holly Yanco and Jill L. Drury. Classifying Human-Robot Interaction: An Updated Taxonomy. In Proceedings of the IEEE Conference on Systems, Man and Cybernetics, The Hague, The Netherlands, October 2004.

And to add their content to the pages. Appropriate topics could be: methods for sensing and perceiving the social world; benchmarks and evaluation techniques for human-robot interaction; socially assistive robotics and other applications for robotics; robotics and its role in education (both robot teachers and robots as the focus of a class); robots and humans working as a team; rescue robotics (and tele-operation in general); and legal and ethical standards for robots in a modern world.

Some prominent human-robot interaction platforms that should be referenced include:

Paro
Robovie (ATR)
Cog (MIT)
Kismet (MIT)
Robonaut (NASA)
ASIMO (Honda)

Improving the article

In an article that will rely heavily on academic sources, it's a good idea to look for academics who pass 3 tests: they seem to know what they're talking about, they believe in citing important, relevant, and well-cited sources, and they make as many papers available online as they can. http://bartneck.de seems to me to be one example, although this isn't my field. If you want to mention more of their papers as a source, check http://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=c+bartneck&hl=en&lr=&btnG=Search and, generally, select only those papers that have been cited a lot themselves. - Dan Dank55 (talk) 17:26, 23 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

how to proceed

there are many ways to proceed. One as proposed by the editor, is to start to insert clear cut well defined information from relevant sources.

another possiblity is to try to structure it as a timeline or from the historical point of view.

So we culd start from the begining of HRI and addd little by little references and relevant issues and achievements.

More importantly, the article needs to follow a basic structure. I would suggest that a section "History" be added, of which the timeline proposed could be part; then other sections where necessary.

If you look at other articles (click on Random article in the grey are at the top left of this browser tab). You can see that they generally follow a structure that covers most general aspects, "History" "Background" etc, with specific ones depending on article content.
