Launched in 2013, the app has achieved over one million downloads on the iOS... Read More about Interaction and engagement with an anxiety management app: Analysis using large-Scale behavioral data.

Ethical considerations of (contextually) affective robot behaviour (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The use of social robots can bring many benefits, but raises ethical concerns as well. One of these concerns, emotional deception, was investigated in this research. First, affective robot behaviour is validated, followed by a user study to investiga... Read More about Ethical considerations of (contextually) affective robot behaviour.

A framework for semi-supervised adaptive learning for activity recognition in healthcare applications (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

With the growing popularity of the Internet of Things and connected home products, potential healthcare applications in a smart-home context for assisted living are becoming increasingly apparent. However, challenges in performing real-time human act... Read More about A framework for semi-supervised adaptive learning for activity recognition in healthcare applications.

'Elbows Out' - Predictive tracking of partially occluded pose for Robot-Assisted dressing (2018)
Journal Article

© 2016 IEEE. Robots that can assist in the activities of daily living, such as dressing, may support older adults, addressing the needs of an aging population in the face of a growing shortage of care professionals. Using depth cameras during robot-a... Read More about 'Elbows Out' - Predictive tracking of partially occluded pose for Robot-Assisted dressing.

Exploring the usability of a connected autonomous vehicle human machine interface designed for older adults (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Users of Level 4–5 connected autonomous vehicles (CAVs) should not need to intervene with the dynamic driving task or monitor the driving environment, as the system will handle all driving functions. CAV human-machine interface (HMI) dashboards for s... Read More about Exploring the usability of a connected autonomous vehicle human machine interface designed for older adults.

Social robots for engagement in rehabilitative therapies: Design implications from a study with therapists (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

In this paper we present the results of a qualitative study with therapists to inform social robotics and human robot interaction (HRI) for engagement in rehabilitative therapies. Our results add to growing evidence that socially assistive robots (SA... Read More about Social robots for engagement in rehabilitative therapies: Design implications from a study with therapists.

Personalized robot assistant for support in dressing (2018)
Journal Article

Robot-assisted dressing is performed in close physical interaction with users who may have a wide range of physical characteristics and abilities. Design of user adaptive and personalized robots in this context is still indicating limited, or no cons... Read More about Personalized robot assistant for support in dressing.

Investigating older adults’ preferences for functions within a human-machine interface designed for fully autonomous vehicles (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

© Springer International Publishing AG, part of Springer Nature 2018. Compared to traditional cars, where the driver has most of their attention allocated on the road and on driving tasks, in fully autonomous vehicles it is likely that the user would...
