Should we get involved? Impact of human collaboration and intervention on multi-robot teams (2025)
Journal Article

The challenges encountered in the design of multi-robot teams (MRT) highlight the need for different levels of human involvement, creating human-in-the-loop multi-robot teams. By integrating human cognitive abilities with the functionalities of the r... Read More about Should we get involved? Impact of human collaboration and intervention on multi-robot teams.

Evaluation and design recommendations for a folding morphing-wheg robot for nuclear characterisation (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This paper explores the design and development of a folding robot required to survey and characterize nuclear facilities only accessible via 150 mm diameter entry ducts. The enclosed legacy facilities at old nuclear sites like Sellafield in the UK ha...

Customisation’s impact on strengthening affective bonds and decision-making with socially assistive robots (2024)
Journal Article

This study aims to fill a gap in understanding how customising robots can affect how humans interact with them, specifically regarding human decision-making and robot perception. The study focused on the robot’s ability to persuade participants to fo... Read More about Customisation’s impact on strengthening affective bonds and decision-making with socially assistive robots.

Multimodal immersive digital twin platform for cyber–physical robot fleets in nuclear environments (2024)
Journal Article

The nuclear energy sector can benefit from mobile robots for remote inspection and handling, reducing human exposure to radiation. Advances in cyber–physical systems have improved robotic platforms in this sector through digital twin (DT) technology....
