Robots that Enhance Human-to-Human Interactions
We explore how robots can enhance human-to-human interactions to improve collaborative team outcomes by promoting inclusion, trust, and cohesion.
Our Research
Understanding Group Dynamics in the Context of HRI
We seek to build computational models that can detect important group dynamics to inform decision-making policies for robot actions.
Robots for Education
We are committed to making real world impact. We develop robots that provide personalized one-on-one tutoring help to students.
