HRI Design Tools



This thread of research builds a suite of tools we have been building to support the unique and complex task of designing robotics applications for human use in collaboration with researchers in programming languages.

Human-Robot Collaboration



This line of work explores new ways of enabling operators to effectively use robotic arms and engineers to form successful human-robot teams.

Building Social Companions



This line of work contributes to our understanding of how robotic products and services might function in real-world environments is my group’s work on long-term interaction with robotic social companions.

Supporting Social Participation



This line of work involves the development of conversational, robotic, and CMC interfaces for individuals with specific social and cognitive needs.
