世界第一個「社會機器人學」學會正式成立




「臺灣社會機器人學學會(Social Robotics Soceity of Taiwan; SRST)」假國立臺灣大學數位人文研究中心,於2025年7月27日下午舉行學會成立大會(第1屆第1次會員大會)與理監事聯席會議。第一屆理事長為國立臺灣大學生物產業傳播暨發展學系岳修平特聘教授(兼任國立臺灣大學數位人文研究中心主任),該學會是全世界第一個以「社會機器人學(Social Robotics)」入名的學術團體。

學會理監事組成包含多位跨領域學者,包含理事長臺大生傳系岳修平特聘教授、常務理事臺大圖書資訊學系林維真教授、常務理事輔大資訊管理學系董惟鳳教授兼系主任、常務監事臺大資工系傅立成特聘教授等,包含資管、資工、圖資、機械、傳播、社工等領域,詳細理監事及組織團隊名單如後文。

理事長岳修平特聘教授表示,籌辦臺灣社會機器人學學會之最終目的是希望建立新的「社會機器人學」學科學門,並且集合跨領域的學者們,成立世界第一個以社會機器人入名的學術團體。未來也會積極的向其他相關學術團體或產業界合作,或是舉辦相關社會機器人相關之競賽、研討會以及教育訓練工作坊等活動。

臺灣社會機器人學學會之第1屆第1次會員大會中,宣布正式成立學會,並且通過了學會章程,學會章程明定了學會主要任務目的為研究及推廣社會機器人學之相關學術理論以及工程技術,並且將舉辦相關之國內外學術研討會及講座等。

此外,岳修平特聘教授過去透過國科會以及臺大校內補助,成立「社會機器人跨域創新學術研究交流平台」,在多年醞釀後,成立學會。「社會機器人」指的是可進行社交互動的機器人,且有別於工業用機器人,社會機器人更被強調的是在與人互動的過程中,與其產生的更具有社交意義的互動」。

The World’s First “Social Robotics” Society Officially Established

The Social Robotics Society of Taiwan (SRST) held its founding assembly (1st General Meeting of the 1st Term) and joint board-supervisory meeting on the afternoon of July 27, 2025, at the Research Center of Digital Humanities at National Taiwan University (NTU).
The first president is Distinguished Professor Hsiu-Ping Yue from the Department of Bio-Industry Communication and Development at NTU, who also serves as the director of NTU’s Research Center of Digital Humanities. This society is the first academic organization in the world to include “Social Robotics” in its name.


The society’s board and supervisory members include many interdisciplinary scholars, such as:
• President: Distinguished Professor Hsiu-Ping Yue (Department of Bio-Industry Communication and Development, NTU)
• Executive Director: Professor Weijane Lin (Department of Library and Information Science, NTU)
• Executive Director: Professor Wei-Feng Tung (Department of Information Management, Fu Jen Catholic University, also Department Chair)
• Executive Supervisor: Distinguished Professor Li-Chen Fu (Department of Computer Science and Information Engineering, NTU)


Fields represented include information management, computer science, library and information science, mechanical engineering, communication, and social work. A detailed list of board members and the organizational team is provided in the following sections.
President Distinguished Professor Hsiu-Ping Yue stated that the ultimate goal of establishing the Social Robotics Society of Taiwan is to create a new academic discipline of “Social Robotics” and to bring together interdisciplinary scholars to form the world’s first academic organization named after social robotics. In the future, the society will actively collaborate with other related academic organizations and industries, and will host competitions, conferences, and educational training workshops related to social robotics.
During the 1st General Meeting of the 1st Term, the society was officially established, and its constitution was passed. The constitution clearly defines the society’s main mission as the research and promotion of academic theories and engineering technologies related to social robotics, and the hosting of relevant domestic and international academic conferences and lectures.
Additionally, Distinguished Professor Hsiu-Ping Yue previously established the “Interdisciplinary Innovation Academic Exchange Platform for Social Robotics” through funding from the National Science and Technology Council (NSTC) and internal support from NTU. After years of preparation, the society was finally founded.
“Social robots” refer to robots capable of social interaction. Unlike industrial robots, social robots emphasize meaningful social engagement with humans during interactions.
