Research

Social HRI

We study how robots engage with people in social settings. Our work examines how embodiment, communication cues, and interaction design shape trust, perception, and collaboration between humans and robots.

Design Learning

Collab. HRI

We design and evaluate strategies that enable humans and robots to work together effectively toward shared goals. Our research focuses on coordination, adaptability, and seamless teamwork in both structured and real-world environments.

Human Robot Teaming

Assistive Technology

We develop technologies that support people in daily life, healthcare, education, and work. By integrating robotics and intelligent interfaces, we aim to create accessible and responsive systems that enhance independence and inclusion.

Human-AI Interaction

We explore how people understand, collaborate with, and shape AI systems. Our work bridges human-centered design and intelligent computation to build transparent, interactive, and trustworthy AI for decision-making and creativity.
