Journal Article
Dogramadzi, S., Caleb-Solly, P., & Camilleri, A. (2022). A study on the effects of cognitive overloading and distractions on human movement during robot-assisted dressing. Frontiers in Robotics and AI, 9, Article 815871. https://doi.org/10.3389/frobt.2022.815871

For robots that can provide physical assistance, maintaining synchronicity of the robot and human movement is a precursor for interaction safety. Existing research on collaborative HRI does not consider how synchronicity can be affected if humans are...

Learning from carers to inform the design of safe physically assistive robots - Insights from a focus group study (2022)
Conference Proceeding
Camilleri, A., Dogramadzi, S., & Caleb-Solly, P. (2022). Learning from carers to inform the design of safe physically assistive robots - Insights from a focus group study. In Proceedings of the 2022 ACM/IEEE International Conference on Human-Robot Interaction (703–707)

This research investigates how professional carers physically assist frail older adults. Carers were asked to discuss their approach and steps for providing safe physical assistance and highlight hazards that assistive robots would have to deal with...
