アブストラクト Many HAI and HRI researchers are now dedicating their efforts to study interactive modalities such as facial expressions,gestures and gaze for affective communication. These modalities make the interaction between robots and individuals become natural and attractive. Although such humanoid-oriented technique is promising,approaches are time and cost consuming which come along with many technical difficulties in many research studies. In order to tackle this issue,we alternatively turn our focus to other three simple but intuitive interaction modalities and their combinations,namely color,sound,and vibration. We conduct a structured study to evaluate the effects of such three modalities on a human`s emotional perception towards our ball-shaped robot ‘Maru’. This results in a set of nine recommended expressions that other appearance-constrained robots may readily employ.
