At present, enhancing the understanding of the importance of the development of cultural and creative industries and grasping the future development trends of the whole society has become the primary issue for the development of this industry in our country. The main work of this paper is based on the interactive innovation research of visual sensor Maya-Unity animation simulation in film and television animation. Maya Unity puts the required lights on the model, adds texture materials, etc., selects all objects, and uses the “Mesh- > Combine” command. Then, open “Create UV->Automatic Mapping” for these objects to perform the UV operation. Open “Window-> UV Texture Editor” and check the new UV for baking. First, the article introduces an overview of the development of cultural and creative industries and the application status of virtual simulation technology in film and television animation. Then, the article introduces the characteristics of visual sensors and interactive design ideas. The scene view displays the document from a graphical perspective, while the code view displays the text content of the document. Both views must be displayed in the split window Dreamer, and only one view can be displayed at the same time; so, it is necessary to establish a button for scene and code switching. The animation scene will change with the passage of time following the development of the story. Therefore, in the lighting design, the animation changes of light intensity and color temperature should be produced. The time to complete a frame of image matching is 135 ms, and to complete a feature measurement, 8 frames of images are used for template matching, and then the average coordinate value is calculated, which takes about 135 × 8 = 1080 ms , which meets the system requirements. The main effect of the text effect is very significant, F = 13.780 , P < 0.001 . Comparison of effect between development and middle to two sides, P = 0.02 , P < 0.05 . The results show that the use of Maya-Unity software for animation simulation can make the rendering of the animation more beautiful.

“…However, social disconnectedness could not induce greater robot anthropomorphism. Previous research on how social disconnectedness influences robot anthropomorphism has shown mixed results (Dang & Liu, 2023;Eyssel & Reich, 2013;Li et al, 2020;Ruijten et al, 2014). A possible reason might be that socially disconnected people anthropomorphize nonhuman agents out of the desire to restore social connection, and thus they are sensitive to whether robots can provide it.…”

Social Connectedness Promotes Robot Anthropomorphism

Anthropomorphism has traditionally been viewed as a means to compensate for a lack of social connection; therefore, social deficits are considered to facilitate anthropomorphism. In this research, we adopted an alternative growth-oriented perspective of anthropomorphism. We posited that anthropomorphism operates as a means to explore the social world, and thus hypothesized that social connectedness promotes robot anthropomorphism. To test this hypothesis, we conducted three studies (total N = 599) examining the effect of social connectedness on robot anthropomorphism. We found that social connectedness increased robot anthropomorphism. Importantly, genuine interest in social interactions with robots accounted for this effect. In addition, anthropomorphism elicited by social connectedness predicted more favorable attitudes toward robots. These findings enrich the current understanding of anthropomorphism and have practical implications.

Purpose This paper aims to examine the effects of both transient and chronic loneliness on consumers’ variety-seeking (VS) behavior and to identify the various underlying mechanisms involved. Design/methodology/approach Four studies were adopted to clarify how transient and chronic loneliness affect consumers’ VS behavior. Findings Both transient and chronic loneliness promote consumers’ VS behavior. More importantly, the effect of transient loneliness on VS behavior is driven by perceived loss of control, whereas the effect of chronic loneliness on VS behavior is driven by need for uniqueness and sensation-seeking. Research limitations/implications To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this research is the first to explore the differential roles of transient and chronic loneliness on VS behavior, which may open new avenues for future research. First, future research could investigate moderators that influence the impacts of transient and chronic loneliness on VS behavior. Second, future research could examine different participant populations and use cognitive neuroscience techniques to further verify the differential roles of these two types of loneliness on VS behavior. Practical implications This research contributes to marketing practice by providing practical guidance on how to effectively design different marketing strategies to promote VS for consumers with different types of loneliness. For consumers with transient loneliness, marketers can benefit from a concerted focus on improving consumers’ sense of control. Yet, for consumers with chronic loneliness, marketing strategies that improve consumers’ need for uniqueness will be more effective. Originality/value This research contributes to the literature on loneliness and consumer behavior, which has largely overlooked the distinct roles of different types of loneliness (i.e. transient vs chronic loneliness) in influencing consumer behavior. Specifically, this paper conducted a comparative analysis of the impacts of transient and chronic loneliness on consumers’ VS behavior and proposed that transient and chronic loneliness promote consumers’ VS behavior through divergent underlying mechanisms.
