The po-tential users proposed 570 application scenarios based on theappearance and functionality of four robots presented (AIBO,BARTHOC, BIRON, iCat). The items were grouped into 13categories which are interpreted and discussed by means offour dimensions: public vs. private use, intensity of interaction,complexity of interaction model, and functional vs. human-likeappearance. The interpretation lead to three classes of appli-cations for social robots according to the degree of social in-teraction: (1) Specialized Applications where the robot has toperform clearly defined tasks which are delegated by a user, (2)Public Applications which are directed to the communicationwith many users, and (3) Individual Applications with the needof a highly elaborated social model to maintain a variety of situ-ations with few people.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">inproceedings</style></work-type></record></records></xml>
