Abstract:
We carried two experiments of tele-existence. We provide a real-time illusion to to a human that they exist in in another place, although the other place is the real world, now their new body is a robot. In our experiments, we used virtual-reality to transport the subject to the body of a soccer playing robot. In this new visions of human-computer interaction, we differentiate the experience between that experimented by adults and that experimented by children. We observed that the experience radically changes the views by adults regarding tele-existence and robotics. On the other hand, children become rapidly transported to the body of the robot.
