We used a human centered design technique
called Forced Photo Metaphor Elicitation

Forced Photo Metaphor Elicitation(FMET)
We asked them….Choose at least 5 pictures from a spread of 120 pictures to express:
what is a companion for you?

“Even though we have differences I appreciate that My wife likes train travel.
You had to have something in common. You can’t be companion with somebody who doesn’t have anything in common”
“My best friend will always think what ever I think, may be she will also think
the same thing, whatever I feel she will also feel the same sometimes, so that need is what attracts.”
“My sister will respond to all my feelings, whatever I say she will respond
properly. Whatever I expect she will comeback with that, even it is not expected still she will respond to me. She is quite similar to me not completely.”

Characteristics of Companionship
![Page 30: How to design voice as a companion](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051520/58a271751a28ab94628b5c6b/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)

Power and Control
Reacher and Settler
![Page 31: How to design voice as a companion](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051520/58a271751a28ab94628b5c6b/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Amplified Emotions
Similarly, through our user data we inferred that whenever a person
experiences amplified emotions such as joy, fear, anger, etc., they are
inclined to have their companion(s) experience / express emotions
alongside them. The expressed emotions would be dependent on the
entities existing mental and emotional state, their interpersonal
relationships etc.
Amplified Emotions
![Page 32: How to design voice as a companion](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051520/58a271751a28ab94628b5c6b/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Sensorial Immersion
When companionship matures, there is a certain sensory immersion observed
between the entities, where each of them connects by sensorial intimation like
touch, smell or visual and become extremely aware of each other presence.
![Page 33: How to design voice as a companion](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051520/58a271751a28ab94628b5c6b/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Sense of attachment
As strong connection begins to develop between the two companions,
the attachment becomes stronger. This could lead to building of trust
and a sense of protection between the entities, where the Reacher seeks
for protection from the settler and settler is the protection provider.

What these study helped and what our next plan?
• Identified what makes a voice based system, a companion to the user.
• Achieved by evolving a companionship framework and then identifying how companionship can be influenced by making appropriate modulations to the voice properties.
• Next, Design specific solutions for social robot interactions.
