Overview
My subject of interest is robotics and more specifically, the study of how humans and robots collaborate with one another. I approach this problem using concepts from machine learning, robot control, and extended reality.
By studying these concepts, I aspire to develop robots that are capable of assisting people with their everyday tasks. A good example of this is the robotic wheelchair I worked on during my Ph.D. A robotic wheelchair is basically an electronic wheelchair integrated with sensors and a computer unit for intelligent control.
At the same time, I investigate the use of extended reality headsets as a means of “explaining” to people why and how robots behave the way they do. This research falls under the category of explainable artificial intelligence, which is a topic of growing significance.
