In this article, we propose an affective robot-assisted activity (ARAA) for fostering social interaction and communication skills among children with ASD by promoting their positive emotional responses through interaction with a robot. To achieve an activity through natural and continuous child-robot social interaction, we developed a framework including: (i) a robot tele-operation method that allows a therapist to improvise a robot’s behavior in real-time and (ii) a quantitative measurement method to describe social interaction within both behavioral and affective aspects. We conducted a preliminary experiment with a child with ASD and verified the proposed system. Furthermore, based on the correlation between smiles and Face-to-Face behavior of the participant, we discuss the importance of quantitative measurement of emotion and social behavior of children with ASD to help them improve their quality of life. |
