The paper investigates the effect of environmental context and attention on how humans attribute goals to the behavior of man-made objects. We presented participants with moving chairpsilas motion along a B-spline trajectory. We manipulated the context by whether an table was placed in the environment or not. We also investigated the effect of chairpsilas attention toward an object on goal attribution...
An artifact's behavior must be easily construed and interpreted as meaningful signals in a social or working context. In order to design such an artifact's behavior, we could exploit human psychological functions - theory of mind (ToM) - the ability to interpret other people's behavior in terms of intentional causal mental states such as beliefs, desires and intentions. In order to apply theory of...
The present study examined the effect of artifact's direction of attention detector (DAD) stimulating actions on the human psychological stance to the artifact. The DAD is a specialized brain function used to determine the attention target by combining information from separate detectors, e.g., direction of eye, head, body and locomotion. We designed sequences of DAD stimulating movement of a chair...
The radiation resistance properties of Ge-doped, F-doped and B + F-codoped SiO 2 graded-index (GI) fibers have been investigated. The B + F-codoped fiber was found to have excellent radiation resistance properties at 0.85 μm, which enables its practical application in doses exceeding 1 10 6 R. The F-doped fiber had a higher photobleaching effect and a stronger dose rate dependence...
