Pleased to announce our new journal article in acmthri: "Best of Both Worlds? Combining Different Forms of Mixed Reality Deictic Gestures" led by Colorado School of Mines / MIRRORLab UNDERGRADS Landon Brown and Jared Hamilton! dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/35… #robotics #ar #mixedreality

Great job Zhao Han presenting his augmented reality work at #HRI2023 / The HRI Conference! If you have students looking for #VAMHRI PhD positions, send them his way as he starts his faculty career!

@tomwilliams.phd on bsky Deftly opening up the discussion about race that robotics desperately needs The HRI Conference #hri2023

Sayanti Roy Sayanti Roy virtually presenting our work on Performative Autonomy ay The HRI Conference / #hri2023!

Absolutely thrilled for MIRRORLab PostDoc Zhao Han, who will be joining University of South Florida this fall as an assistant professor!!!

It finally happened!!! After nearly four years of work+wait, our survey on #VR and #AR for #HRI was accepted to acmthri! We'll have a final version up soon to share!

We just found out that MIRRORLab student Puck Wen was nominated for best paper at #PERSUASIVE2023! Her paper, "On Further Reflection… Moral Reflections Enhance Robotic Moral Persuasive Capability" can be found here: mirrorlab.mines.edu/publications/w… 🧵

I am delighted to say that I will be joining the Colorado School of Mines CS@Mines 💻🤖 as an Assistant Professor 👨‍🏫 this January! #academia #AcademicTwitter

Depending on how groups of robots present themselves, they may be viewed as distinct individuals... or as parts of a hive mind. How does this impact how people allocate trust to those groups? MIRRORLab student Alexandra Bejarano investigates in her 2023 RO-MAN 2025 paper! 🧵

Interested in the design of morally competent language capable robots? Check out Colorado School of Mines / CS@Mines / Mines Robotics / MIRRORLab student Terran Mott's new RO-MAN 2025 paper!

Wilderness search and rescue teams face challenges in hazardous environments. Could semi-autonomous technologies like robots be valuable assets for search teams? The answer is complicated, as shown by Terran Mott's (OTHER!) new RO-MAN 2025 paper! mirrorlab.mines.edu/publications/m… 🧵/

Ahh!!! Thrilled for Colorado School of Mines / CS@Mines / Mines Robotics MIRRORLab students Terran Mott, Rafael Sousa Silva, Alexandra Bejarano, Mark Higger, and Ruchen (Puck) Wen for winning the #ICRA2023 Roboethics competition!!! competition.raiselab.ca/competition-de…

How can robots maintain teammates' Situation Awareness in high-latency contexts like space exploration, without increasing teammates' cognitive load? Colorado School of Mines / Mines Robotics Rafael Sousa Silva explores in his 2023 RO-MAN 2025 paper! mirrorlab.mines.edu/publications/s… 🧵/

How can robots protect user privacy, and explain to users when commands must be rejected to protect privacy? Mines Robotics CS@Mines DYALab student Sihui Li investigates in her RO-MAN 2025 paper, in collab with the Human-Centered Robotics Lab and MIRRORLab. mirrorlab.mines.edu/publications/l… 🧵/

Now out: a perspectives piece in Communications of the ACM from myself, Cynthia Matuszek, Kristiina Jokinen, Raj Korpan, Ph.D., James Pustejovsky, and Brian Scassellati! We discuss the most critical ethical concerns surrounding language capable robots: Issues of Identity, Persuasion, and Privacy dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/36…

I will be starting a lab CS@Mines this spring, and I am looking for prospective MS and PhD students, starting Fall 2024 (And I have funding!). My research there will focus on similar topics such as multi-robot coordination, filming, and perception planning.

Was thrilled to hear that this won a best paper award at RO-MAN 2025 #ROMAN2023!!! Congratulations Hideki!!! Thank you to AFOSR YIP AFOSR for funding my parts of the paper! :)

(1/6) Thrilled to share that I'll be joining Colorado School of Mines Colorado School of Mines as an Assistant Professor in Mechanical Engineering and Robotics in January! Our MPALA Lab (Motion Planning, Active Learning, and Autonomy) has two open PhD positions: georgekontoudis.com/join/

Here is the Colorado School of Mines and Lunar Outpost Break the Ice Challenge rover removing the simulated icy regolith. We are on day 3 of our 15-day demonstration. It's going well!

What politeness strategies should robots use when rejecting commands? Colorado School of Mines / Mines Robotics / CS@Mines / MIRRORLab student Terran Mott explores in her #HRI2024 The HRI Conference paper! mirrorlab.mines.edu/publications/m… 🧵 1/
