A social robot is an autonomous robot that interacts and communicates with humans or other autonomous physical agents by following social behaviors and rules attached to its role. This definition suggests that a social robot must have a physical embodiment (screen characters would be excluded). Recently some robots have been developed that use a screen to display the robot's head. Such machine is on the borderline of being a robot. If the body only functions as a holder for the screen then such a system cannot be considered a robot. However, if it robots has some physical motoric and sensoric abilities then such a system could be considered a robot. The field of social robotics was started in the 1940s-50s by William Grey Walter, and developed since the early 1990s by artificial intelligence researchers, most notably, Kerstin Dautenhahn, as well as Maja Mataric, Cynthia Breazeal, Aude Billard, Yiannis Demiris, and Brian Duffy.
