Animal-like robots: designing artificial pets

Animal-like robots are not the slaves we used to know in the 20th
century. They seem to be apparently useless machines, which only purpose

is to establish a relationship with their owner. They are designed to
act  a companion, maybe as friends. Would we ever feel attachment toward

these artificial creatures? How far can the engineer use pet studies to
desgn new ways for interacting with these robots? What can we learn from

these new hybrid objects?

One of the lecturer's papers on the issue:
