Abstract
In the near future, robots and automations are expected to enter into our daily lives for service and assistance to humans. But the question is, are these systems actually designed to interact with people in every day setting? In this paper, we focus on recent studies that investigate the interaction between humans and machines and discuss the novel theoretical perspectives on the dynamic field of social robotics. In addition we build the foundation for a framework that advances a human-centric approach to address social issues alongside the necessary research and technology development. Arguing on the embodiment and the morphological features that characterize social robots, we attempt to balance the anthropomorphism and functionality to level the evolution of robotics and facilitate development and the design of the next generation of social robots.
