Lovotics: Loving Robots Hooman Aghaebrahimi Samani

LOVOTICS refers to the research of human - robot relationship. The general idea of Lovotics is to develop a robotic system which strives to achieve a high level of attachment between humans and robot by exploring human love. Such relationship is a contingent process of attraction, affection, and attachment from humans towards robots and the belief of the vice versa from robots to humans. The novel advanced artificial intelligence system of Lovotics includes an Artificial Endocrine System (AES), based on physiology of love, Probabilistic Love Assembly (PLA), based on psychology of love, and Affective State Transition (AST), based on emotions, modules. Lovotics is as multidisciplinary research field utilizing fundamental concepts from philosophy, psychology, biology, anthropology, neuroscience, social science, engineering, robotics, computer science, and artificial intelligence. Proposed engineering approach provides a system consisting of relevant modules allowing the development of functionalities based on multidisciplinary research yielding a new form of love relationships between robots and humans. www.lovotics.com
