The focus of this paper is to suggest a theoretical and conceptual framework for the development of a novel model that can be used for developing social robots, focused on seeing the users’ projected abilities onto the robot as decisive for the actualisation of the robot in a series of different social contexts (Breazeal). Focus will be on conceptually grounding the discussion theoretically through an interdisciplinary approach arising from the fields of psychology, sociology, visual culture studies and robotics. We will look at the terms, Projective - psychology ( Klein, Giddens etc), animatedness (Ngai) and vison and visuality (Hall Foster) , for through that to explore more ways to circle in the actualisation of the robot, in a human - robot interaction.
