Employing a non-intrusive approach, this paper discusses the methodological issues for annotating vision data by allowing the subjects to indicate their comfort using a handheld Comfort Level Devic. Findings are presented from a Human Robot Interaction (HRI) Demonstration Trial where attendees approached a stationary mechanical looking robot to a comfortable distance.Identifying links between human personality and attributed robot personality is a relatively new area of human-robot interaction.

This paper presents results from Human Robot Interaction (HRI) trials carried out at the University of Hertfordshire which examined how a robot companion must behave when fetching and carrying objects to and from human participants in a domestic 'living room' scenario.This paper presents a proof of concept prototype study for domestic home robot companions, using a narrative-based methodology based on the principles of immersive engagement and fictional enquiry, creating scenarios which are inter-connected through a coherent narrative arc, to encourage participant immersion within a realistic setting.
