ALT UT to lead new $30M NSF robotics center.\n\nNew five-year award will establish the Center for Human and Robot Co-Adaptation.
ALT The center will bring together 39 researchers from six universities to study how people and robots adapt to one another over time in everyday environments.
ALT \u201CThe next leap in robotics is not just getting robots to perform more tasks,\u201D said Joydeep Biswas, an associate professor of computer science who will serve as the center\u2019s director. \n\n\u201CIt is enabling robots to understand the people around them: their needs, preferences, values and constraints, while recognizing that people also adapt their behavior when they integrate robots into their environment.\u201D
ALT The research explores how robots and people learn from each other \u2014 robots adapting to individual needs and abilities, and people discovering new ways to live more independently.
ALT Anai Moreno, April Cafaro, and Dr. Sridevi Rao stand behind a booth featuring a black tablecloth with "TEXAS Robotics" prominently displayed in orange and white text. The table is set with brochures titled "Leading the World in Robotics Research and Education," alongside two small robot figurines. The background features rows of chairs and a podium, setting the Good Systems Symposium setting. A sign with "Let's Connect" encourages networking via QR codes linked to social media platforms like LinkedIn and Twitter.
ALT A stack of brochures titled "TEXAS ROBOTICS" is arranged on a table, showcasing bold white text on a background featuring robotic components in gold and orange hues. The tagline, "Bridging Research and Application in Robotics," reflects the program's mission. A small metallic robot figurine in the background, along with a clear acrylic stand holding additional informational flyers, helps set the tone for an engaging, academic event showcasing robotics innovation.
