Human Capability
How can robotic assistance support task performance while preserving and developing human capability and skill?
Human-Centered Robotics and Design Laboratory
H-CORD Lab
Human Agency
How can people retain effective understanding, intervention, and control as robot autonomy increases?
Human Role
How should robots understand and act in environments involving people with different roles, relationships, rights, and needs?
Human-Centered Robotics
We study how increasing robot capability, autonomy, and social presence reshape human capability, agency, and roles, and how robotic systems can support effective, sustainable, and human-compatible collaboration.
