Socially aware robot navigation is gaining popularity with the increase in delivery and assistive robots. The research is further fueled by a need for socially aware navigation skills in autonomous vehicles to move safely and appropriately in spaces shared with humans. Although most of these are ground robots, drones are also entering the field. In this paper, we present a literature survey of the works on socially aware robot navigation in the past 10 years. We propose four different faceted taxonomies to navigate the literature and examine the field from four different perspectives. Through the taxonomic review, we discuss the current research directions and the extending scope of applications in various domains. Further, we put forward a list of current research opportunities and present a discussion on possible future challenges that are likely to emerge in the field.

翻译：随着配送机器人与辅助机器人的普及，社交感知机器人导航日益受到关注。这一领域的研究也因自动驾驶车辆需要具备社交感知导航能力以在人类共享空间中安全、适当地移动而进一步得到推动。尽管当前研究大多集中于地面机器人，无人机也开始涉足该领域。本文对过去十年社交感知机器人导航相关研究进行了文献综述。我们提出四种不同维度的分类体系，以梳理现有文献并从四个不同视角审视该领域。通过分类学综述，我们探讨了当前的研究方向以及各领域中日益扩展的应用范围。此外，我们归纳了当前的研究机遇，并对该领域未来可能涌现的挑战进行了讨论。
