My research focuses on democratising the design & development of emerging technologies such as wearables, robotics, and physical user interfaces.
Qualifications
Research Interests
As a multi-disciplinary researcher, my areas of interest and expertise lie across the fields of Human-Computer Interaction, Design, and Engineering. These include:
Shape-Changing Interfaces
Human-Robot Interaction
Cyber-Physical Systems
Wearable & Tangible Interfaces
User Experience (UX)
Robotics / Actuation
Digital Fabrication
Collaborative Design (Co-Design)
I have a particular interest in conducting both quantitative and qualitative research which combines a mix of engineering fabrication approaches for prototyping, together with collaborative design (co-design) to encourage users and experts from different domains to develop content and applications for the next generation of interactive hardware systems and interfaces (e.g., shape-changing displays, wearables, and robotics).
