Learning outcomes
Conoscenze

AFFECTIVE COMPUTING: Lo studente acquisirà conoscenze relative alle emozioni e alle sue correlazioni con i segnali fisiologici. Oltre alle emozioni verranno studiati anche i correlati fisiologici con i disordini mentali 

DESIGN OF INTERACTIVE ROBOTS AND MACHINES: lo studente acquisirà conoscenze relative al mondo dell'interazione uomo macchina e uomo robot. Lo studente apprenderà i vari paradigmi di progettazione per sistemi digitali finalizzati all'interazione con l'uomo. Verranno condotte inoltre esperienze pratiche di progettazione e co-progettazione di sistemi interattivi utilizzando vari strumenti software e hardware.

Knowledge

AFFECTIVE COMPUTING: Students will gain knowledge about theories of emotion and mood disorders. Specifically they will learn how to model emotions and how to correlate them to the patterns of physiological signals.  

DESIGN OF INTERACTIVE ROBOTS AND MACHINES: students will acquire knowledge related to the world of human computer and humna robot interaction. Foundalmetals of design and development of interactive systems will be introduced together with most used software and hardware developing platforms.

Modalità di verifica delle conoscenze

AFFECTIVE COMPUTING: Le conoscenze acquisite verranno verificate attraverso test in itinere e finale

DESIGN OF INTERACTIVE ROBOTS AND MACHINES: Le conoscenze acquisite verranno verificate attraverso test in itinere basati su esercitazioni in classe e attraverso la valutazione di un progetto finale da presentare al docente e poi discutere in sessione orale di esame

Assessment criteria of knowledge

AFFECTIVE COMPUTING: The gained knowledge will be assessed through ongoing tests.

DESIGN OF INTERACTIVE ROBOTS AND MACHINES: The gained knowledge will be assessed through ongoing tests and with a final project to be discussed during the exam oral session.

Capacità

AFFECTIVE COMPUTING: Lo studente sarà in grado di capire le relazioni tra pattern di segnali fisioligici e emozioni, quindi sarà in grado di identificare e caratterizzare le emozioni oltre che capire la neurofisiologia dei disordini mentali.  

DESIGN OF INTERACTIVE ROBOTS AND MACHINES: Lo studente sarà in grado di progettare in termini funzionali e di definire uno schema di interazione uomo-macchina per un sistema digitale quale un dispositivo IOT, un robot o un più comunemente detto oggetto "smart". Lo studente sarà inoltre in grado di progettare un prototipo basilare di un oggetto smart atto alla valutazione dell'interattività del sistema con gli esseri umani.

Skills

AFFECTIVE COMPUTING: Students will be able to process physiological data applying advanced linear and nonlinear methods trying to correlate that to the emotional experiences.   

DESIGN OF INTERACTIVE ROBOTS AND MACHINES: students will be able to design and define (in functional terms) a human-machine behavior and relationship scheme for a smart object, robot or digital device. Studentes will be also able to design a prototype aimed at testing the intercatcive capabilities of a smart object or robot.

Modalità di verifica delle capacità

AFFECTIVE COMPUTING: Prova orale

DESIGN OF INTERACTIVE ROBOTS AND MACHINES: Progetto sperimentale finale e realtiva discussione orale

Assessment criteria of skills

AFFECTIVE COMPUTING: It is planned a final project with an experimental paradigm. 

DESIGN OF INTERACTIVE ROBOTS AND MACHINES: final project with oral presentation and discussion

Comportamenti

AFFECTIVE COMPUTING: Capacità di progettare un protocollo sperimentale e definire un paradigma dettagliato 

DESIGN OF INTERACTIVE ROBOTS AND MACHINES: Lo studente potrà acquisire e/o sviluppare sensibilità alle problematiche di interazione sociale ed emaptica fra uomo e robot e fra uomo e macchina. Lo studente potrà inoltre saper gestire responsabilità di esecuzione e formalizzazione di un progetto di design di prodottointerattivo.

Behaviors

AFFECTIVE COMPUTING: Real experimental data will be collected with a suitable protocol 

 

DESIGN OF INTERACTIVE ROBOTS AND MACHINES: student will be able to acquire and/or develop sensitivity to the problems of social and hemapic interaction between humans and robots and between humans and machines. The students will be also able to manage responsibility for the execution and formalization of an interactive product design project
