ShearTouch - Towards a wearable tactile feedback device to provide continuous shear force sensation in real time (2020)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Force feedback in current teleoperation systems typically only provides haptic/kinaesthetic feedback to operators in the form of normal forces. However, it is proposed in this paper that the introduction of shear (or lateral) force feedback to operat...

Towards establishing a 'cooperation' measure for coupled movement in close-proximity human-robot interaction (2020)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

To achieve safe close-proximity human-robot interaction , particularly for physically assitive tasks, robot motion planning needs to recognize and adapt to the behaviour of humans in the long-term. Generally, motion prediction with probabilistic conf... Read More about Towards establishing a 'cooperation' measure for coupled movement in close-proximity human-robot interaction.

The impact of affective verbal expressions in social robots (2020)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This research investigates whether there is an ethical concern in robots misrepresenting their internal state through speech. Participants were asked to discuss their food preferences with a robot, where the robot would either respond through facts o...

Speech related accessibility issues in social robots (2020)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This work describes an incidental finding from a longitudinal Human-Robot Interaction study that was investigating whether a robot showing emotions during interactions with older adults was perceived differently than to a robot that did not display e...

Designing ethical social robots - A longitudinal field study with older adults (2020)
Journal Article

Emotional deception and emotional attachment are regarded as ethical concerns in human robot interaction. Considering these concerns is essential, particularly as little is known about longitudinal effects of interactions with social robots. We ran a...
