Abstract

Within the next years, human-robot-interaction will be ready to capture relevant parts of the society such as work, care, and health. The technologies are there, the area of artificial intelligence is developing fast and promising and the first demonstrators are already successfully implemented in industry and other domains. The big questions are: Are we willing to have human-robot-companionships? What influences our openness and desire for social relationships with robots? This paper - apart from classical pathways of acceptance research - seeks to find some answers in the aspects of personality and attitudes. The results are based upon an empirical study with 230 participants and give some insights on the correlations of the "Big-Five" and human-robot-interaction.
