Abstract

This paper reports the initial results of an ongoing study created to examine how group interactions re-shape the individual’s mental model while interacting with a robot that plays a bell attached to its end-effector as the user executes 3 dimensional arm movements. We believe that this approach could have a positive impact in the delivery of rehabilitation paradigms that explore the dynamics of group interaction encouraging collaborative play over longer periods of time than otherwise possible with individual therapy sessions.
