Research
interests
My current research interests comprise of various technical and theoretical aspects of Human Computer Interaction (HCI) such as Human Robot Interaction and user-centered design for specialized user groups, for e.g. the elderly and children.
Current
Research
From April 1, 2011 I am
employed as a post-doctoral researcher in the CRAFT lab at Ecole
Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne (EPFL), Switzerland.
The official website of my PhD project is now
up and running here: ROILA.ORG
I was employed as a PhD researcher in Human Robot Interaction on January 1,
2008 in the
DI group at TU/e under the supervision of
Dr Christoph Bartneck and
Prof Loe Feijs.
