  The Robadom project aims at creating a homecare robot that help and assist
people in their daily life, either in doing task for the human or in managing
day organization. A robot could have this kind of role only if it is accepted
by humans. Before thinking about the robot appearance, we decided to evaluate
the importance of the relation between verbal and nonverbal communication
during a human-robot interaction in order to determine the situation where the
robot is accepted. We realized two experiments in order to study this
acceptance. The first experiment studied the importance of having robot
nonverbal behavior in relation of its verbal behavior. The second experiment
studied the capability of a robot to provide a correct human-robot interaction.
