In this informal meeting of the robotics seminar, we will do good on our promise to discuss the structure of the new(ish) Design Q exam, including presentations by faculty of the expectations, war stories from students who took the Design Q, and Q&A (no pun intended). The second part of this double feature seminar is going to be a presentation and discussion on one of the classics papers at the foundation of HRI, Paul Ekman’s 1969 article “The Repertoire of Nonverbal Behavior: Categories, Origins, Usage, and Coding”, which is at the basis of decades of research on body language, and a must-know for any researcher interested in HRI systems using gestures and facial expressions.
