Digital twins for human-assistive robot teams in ambient assisted living (2023)
Conference Proceeding

Digital twins are virtual replicas of physical systems that simulate real-world scenarios to optimize system performance, reduce physical losses, and ensure user safety. Although digital twins have been widely adopted in industrial settings, there is... Read More about Digital twins for human-assistive robot teams in ambient assisted living.

Augmented Robotic Telepresence (ART): A Prototype for Enhancing Remote Interaction and Participation (2023)
Conference Proceeding

Mobile robotic telepresence (MRP) allows remote users' access and mobility in a range of local environments. MRP devices have been adopted in societally significant domains such as workplaces, museums, commerce, education, and healthcare, especially...

“It’s not just for the Past but it’s for the Here and Now”: Gift-Giver Perspectives on the Memory Machine to Gift Digital Memories (2023)
Conference Proceeding

We present the design of the Memory Machine (MeMa), a technology probe that can store, contextualise, and document media to represent memories. We accumulate vast physical and digital possessions throughout our lives, making it difficult to distingui...
