\section{Chapter Summary}
This chapter has established the context and objectives for this thesis. I identified two critical challenges facing WoZ-based HRI research. The first is the \emph{Accessibility Problem}: high technical barriers limit participation by non-programmers. The second is the \emph{Reproducibility Problem}: fragmented tooling makes results difficult to replicate across labs. I proposed a web-based framework approach that addresses these challenges through intuitive design interfaces, enforced experimental protocols, and platform-agnostic architecture. Finally, I posed the central research question and described how this thesis addresses it through formal design, a reference implementation, and a pilot validation study. The next chapters establish the technical and methodological foundations.
