Abstract

We summarise two human-robot interaction studies investigating a drumming experience with Kaspar, a humanoid child-sized robot, and human participants. Our aim1 is not to have Kaspar just replicate the human's drumming, but to engage in a 'social manner', i.e. in a call and response turn-taking interaction. The interactions are discussed in terms of imitation, turntaking, and the effect of gender differences. This research is part of a project into developmental robotics with a particular emphasis of our work on gesture communication.
