Emcar: Embodied Controller for Animating Robots

This chapter describes EMCAR, a novel software tool for programming robot motion that leverages the unique affordances of artistic practices such as puppetry and drawing to conceive, design, and program novel interactions and realize new use cases for HRI. The advantage of this no-code platform is that it expands creative applications for collaborative robots - putting robots directly in the hands of artists - and provides an inclusive environment that enables individuals with little or no technical backgrounds to engage meaningfully in collaborations and robotics research.
