Abstract

This study examines the impact of motion design on user perceptions and interactions with robotic arms, which are expanding from industrial applications to supporting daily human tasks. The research investigates how different motion components influence user perceptions and preferences. Employing an online questionnaire, we analyze participants’ responses to videos of robotic arms performing laundry sorting tasks, revealing significant relationships between motion modalities, erratic behavior, and characteristic attribution. The findings contribute to the design of robotic arm movements to effectively communicate and engage with users, enhancing human-robot interaction in both industrial and social contexts.
