In our society interaction with robots is becoming more and more frequent since robots are not only used in the industry, but increasingly often in assistance and in health system. Perception of robots and their movements is crucial for their acceptance. Here we shortly review basic mechanisms of perception of actions, and then of perception of robotic and human movements. The literature demonstrates that there are commonalities, but also differences in the perception of human and robotic movements. Especially interesting are biologic gender differences in the perception of robotic movements. The results show that males seem to be more sensitive to the differences between robotic and anthropomorphic movements, whereas females seem not to perceive such differences. However, females transfer more anthropomorphic features to robotic movements. While looking at the brain activation during perception of humanoid and robotic movements in different genders one can conclude that different strategies are used; female seem to analyse robotic movements online, while male seem to use previous knowledge from interaction with robots. Further research is needed to specify more such gender differences.
在我们的社会中，与机器人的互动越来越频繁，因为机器人不仅应用于工业领域，还越来越多地用于辅助和医疗系统。对机器人及其动作的感知对于它们被接受至关重要。在这里，我们简要回顾一下动作感知的基本机制，然后是对机器人和人类动作的感知。文献表明，在对人类和机器人动作的感知方面既有共性，也有差异。特别有趣的是在对机器人动作的感知上存在生物学性别差异。结果表明，男性似乎对机器人动作和拟人化动作之间的差异更敏感，而女性似乎没有察觉到这种差异。然而，女性会将更多拟人化特征赋予机器人动作。在观察不同性别在感知类人机器人和机器人动作时的大脑激活情况时，可以得出不同的策略被采用的结论；女性似乎在线分析机器人动作，而男性似乎利用与机器人互动的先前知识。需要进一步的研究来更明确地界定此类性别差异。
