5th International Virtual Conference on Human Interaction and Emerging Technologies, IHIET 2021 and 6th International Conference on Human Interaction and Emerging Technologies: Future Systems, IHIET-FS 2021 --27 August 2021 through 29 August 2021 -- --265139 ; The COVID-19 pandemic has heightened the need for a better understanding of how service robots (SR) can aid practitioners as well as society. Individuals must not only embrace the robotic environment but also learn how to collaborate with humanoid service robots for collective value creation. Starting with the eminence of humanoid SR in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, we majorly focus on anthropomorphism and social exclusion. These two key concepts present both opportunities and challenges, being the most eminent areas of research in the quest for understanding society-robot relationships. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
