Robots are expected to become more common in the near future, providing services and assisting us in our homes and in everyday tasks. The fundamental human-robot interaction (HRI) problem is that interaction with robots will be effective only if they are socially acceptable to people: function alone is not enough. Consequently my long term research goal is to design, implement and evaluate socially acceptable robotic interfaces based on deep understanding of people's relationships with robots. To achieve this, my immediate research focus is exploring how robots inherently differ from other computers, particularly studying: (i) their physicality and (ii) their dynamic spatial relationships with people (or 'proxemics', in Sociology terms).

预计在不久的将来，机器人将变得更加普遍，在我们的家里和日常任务中提供服务和协助我们。人-机器人交互(HRI)的基本问题是，只有当机器人被社会接受时，与机器人的交互才会有效：仅有功能是不够的。因此，我的长期研究目标是基于对人类与机器人关系的深入理解，设计、实施和评估社会可接受的机器人界面。为了实现这一点，我目前的研究重点是探索机器人与其他计算机本质上的不同之处，特别是研究：(I)它们的物理特性和(Ii)它们与人(或社会学术语中的“代理”)之间的动态空间关系。
