Abstract

This paper reports on a field study of more than three hundred ‘incidental’ human-robot encounters in a public outdoor space. We have used an ethnomethodologically informed ethnographic method, employing breaching experiments and membership categorization analysis to reveal how Incidentally Co-present Persons (InCoPs) interact with and make sense of robots in an urban environment.
