Social Engagement with Robots and Agents

SERA (Social Engagement with Robots and Agents) is a European Collaborative Project which aims to advance science in the field of social acceptability of verbally interactive robots and agents, with a view to their applications especially in assistive technologies (companions, virtual butlers). The SERA consortium involves four partners in four different countries in Europe.
