Human-Agent Interaction
The main concerns regarding interaction with the drone is the
acceptance of a flying object that will tell the user what to do
and not to do. The approval of a mechanical flying object in
action was not well received by our participants in general,
and the suggestion was to have a more familiar or friendly
embodiment for such a technology. One participant said “I
find it a bit unsettling to be observed like this and be told what
to do by a drone unless I have programmed it to do so.” Another
participant stated “I would make it more like a human
or an animal in order to provide the notion of familiarity”.
