About corse

The field of Human-Robot Interaction (HRI) has emerged as a critical area of study as robots become increasingly integrated into various aspects of daily life and work. Understanding how humans and robots can effectively communicate and collaborate is essential for designing user-friendly robotic systems. This course aims to provide participants with a comprehensive overview of the principles of HRI, focusing on design and usability. By exploring the psychological, social, and technical facets of interaction, attendees will gain insights into creating robots that not only perform tasks but also engage users in a meaningful way. Participants will delve into various design methodologies, usability testing, and the evaluation of user experience in robotic systems. The course will cover a range of applications, including service robots, social robots, and assistive technologies, ensuring a well-rounded perspective on HRI. By the end of the training, attendees will be equipped with practical skills and theoretical knowledge to enhance their ability to design and implement effective human-robot interactions.
