Robotics is becoming a natural part of our daily lives and our future, but how can we learn to understand how robots behave?

Despite how advanced robots have become, getting them to feel the way humans do is an incredibly complex challenge.

Over the past decades, roboticists have introduced a wide range of advanced systems that can move around in their ...

As robots and AI systems increasingly enter shared workspaces, domestic environments, and assistive contexts, understanding and predicting human behavior ...

One of the most significant insights from the study is that roboticists must engage both technically and physically with ...
