Making Sense of Public Space for Robot Design (2025)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Pelikan, H. R. M., Mutlu, B., & Reeves, S. (2025, March). Making Sense of Public Space for Robot Design. Presented at HRI 2025, Melbourne, Australia

If robots are to be deployed in public places, we need to understand what factors their design should consider. Informed by sociological studies of urban settings, particularly the work of William H. Whyte and the Street Life Project, we describe fou... Read More about Making Sense of Public Space for Robot Design.
