Publikation Soziale Roboter, Empathie und Emotionen. Eine Untersuchung aus interdisziplinärer Perspektive(TA-SWISS, 2021) Schulze, Hartmut; Bendel, Oliver; Schubert, Maria; Binswanger, Mathias; Simmler, Monika; Reimer, Ricarda T.D.; Tanner, Alexandra; Urech, Andreas; Kreis, Jeanne; Zigan, Nicole; Kramer, Iris; Flückiger, Silvan; Rüegg, Michelle; Künzi, Cäsar; Kochs, Kathrin; Zingg, Olivia05 - Forschungs- oder ArbeitsberichtPublikation The morality menu project(2020) Bendel, Oliver; Nørskov, Marco; Seibt, Johanna; Santiago Quick, OliverThe discipline of machine ethics examines, designs and produces moral machines. The artificial morality is usually pre-programmed by a manufacturer or developer. However, another approach is the more flexible morality menu (MOME). With this, owners or users replicate their own moral preferences onto a machine. A team at the FHNW implemented a MOME for MOBO (a chatbot) in 2019/2020. In this article, the author introduces the idea of the MOME, presents the MOBO-MOME project and discusses advantages and disadvantages of such an approach. It turns out that a morality menu could be a valuable extension for certain moral machines.04B - Beitrag KonferenzschriftPublikation Increasing well-being through robotic hugs(2023) Bendel, Oliver; Puljic, Andrea; Heiz, Robin; Tömen, Furkan; De Paola, Ivan; Kido, Takashi; Takadama, KeikiThis paper addresses the question of how to increase the acceptability of a robot hug and whether such a hug contributes to well-being. It combines the lead author’s own research with pioneering research by Alexis E. Block and Katherine J. Kuchenbecker. First, the basics of this area are laid out with particular attention to the work of the two scientists. The authors then present HUGGIE Project I, which largely consisted of an online survey with nearly 300 participants, followed by HUGGIE Project II, which involved building a hugging robot and testing it on 136 people. At the end, the results are linked to current research by Block and Kuchenbecker, who have equipped their hugging robot with artificial intelligence to better respond to the needs of subjects.04B - Beitrag KonferenzschriftPublikation Care robots with sexual assistance functions(2020) Bendel, OliverResidents in retirement and nursing homes have sexual needs just like other people. However, the semi-public situation makes it difficult for them to satisfy these existential concerns. In addition, they may not be able to meet a suitable partner or find it difficult to have a relationship for mental or physical reasons. People who live or are cared for at home can also be affected by this problem. Perhaps they can host someone more easily and discreetly than the residents of a health facility, but some elderly and disabled people may be restricted in some ways. This article examines the opportunities and risks that arise with regard to care robots with sexual assistance functions. First of all, it deals with sexual well-being. Then it presents robotic systems ranging from sex robots to care robots. Finally, the focus is on care robots, with the author exploring technical and design issues. A brief ethical discussion completes the article. The result is that care robots with sexual assistance functions could be an enrichment of the everyday life of people in need of care, but that we also have to consider some technical, design and moral aspects.04B - Beitrag KonferenzschriftPublikation The Happy Hedgehog project(2021) Bendel, Oliver; Graf, Emanuel; Bollier, KevinSemi-autonomous machines, autonomous machines and robots inhabit closed, semi-closed and open environments, more structured environments like the household or more unstructured environments like cultural landscapes or the wilderness. There they encounter domestic animals, farm animals, working animals, and wild animals. These creatures could be disturbed, displaced, injured, or killed by the ma-chines. Within the context of machine ethics and social robotics, the School of Business FHNW developed several de-sign studies and prototypes for animal-friendly machines, which can be understood as moral and social machines in the spirit of these disciplines. In 2019-20, a team led by the main author developed a prototype robot lawnmower that can recognize hedgehogs, interrupt its work for them and thus pro-tect them. Every year many of these animals die worldwide because of traditional service robots. HAPPY HEDGEHOG (HHH), as the invention is called, could be a solution to this problem. This article begins by providing an introduction to the background. Then it focuses on navigation (where the machine comes across certain objects that need to be recognized) and thermal and image recognition (with the help of machine learning) of the machine. It also presents obvious weaknesses and possible improvements. The results could be relevant for an industry that wants to market their products as animal-friendly machines.04B - Beitrag KonferenzschriftPublikation How can bar robots enhance the well-being of guests?(AAAI, 2023) Bendel, Oliver; Peier, Lea; Kido, Takashi; Takadama, KeikiThis paper addresses the question of how bar robots can contribute to the well-being of guests. It first develops the basics of service robots and social robots. It gives a brief overview of which gastronomy robots are on the market. It then presents examples of bar robots and describes two models used in Switzerland. A research project at the School of Business FHNW collected empirical data on them, which is used for this article. The authors then discuss how the robots could be improved to increase the well-being of customers and guests and better address their individual wishes and requirements. Artificial intelligence can play an important role in this. Finally, ethical and social problems in the use of bar robots are discussed and possible solutions are suggested to counter these.04B - Beitrag KonferenzschriftPublikation Co-robots as care robots(AAAI, 2020) Bendel, Oliver; Gasser, Alina; Siebenmann, JoelCooperation and collaboration robots, co-robots or cobots for short, are an integral part of factories. For example, they work closely with the fitters in the automotive sector, and everyone does what they do best. However, the novel robots are not only relevant in production and logistics, but also in the service sector, especially where proximity between them and the users is desired or unavoidable. For decades, individual solutions of a very different kind have been developed in care. Now experts are increasingly relying on co-robots and teaching them the special tasks that are involved in care or therapy. This article presents the advantages, but also the disadvantages of co-robots in care and support, and provides in-formation with regard to human-robot interaction and communication. The article is based on a model that has already been tested in various nursing and retirement homes, namely Lio from F&P Robotics, and uses results from accompanying studies. The authors can show that co-robots are ideal for care and support in many ways. Of course, it is also important to consider a few points in order to guarantee functionality and acceptance.04B - Beitrag KonferenzschriftPublikation Serviceroboter als Retter in der Not(28.02.2020) Bendel, Oliver10 - Elektronische-/ WebpublikationPublikation 300 Keywords Soziale Robotik.
