Friederike Eyssel @unibielefeld talking about social categorization and prejudice in HRI and how we can challenge bias in research and design of robots at a social justice in HRI event @TUeindhoven organized by @PerugiaGiulia
Tom Williams @williamstome talking about how we, as HRI researchers and developers, have a responsibility to subvert the White Patriarchal status quo attached to applications of robots in society at a social justice event @TUeindhoven organized by @PerugiaGiulia.
What an amazing day at the Symposium on Embracing diversity and social justice in social robotics organised by the amazing @PerugiaGiulia today @TUeindhoven! Such important discussions and talks (shout out to @williamstome) and so much inspiration for my own research! #hri
Leaving Zurich for the Symposium on Embracing diversity and social justice in social robotics organised by @PerugiaGiulia happening @TUeindhoven tomorrow! Very excited for the talks and discussions including keynote speakers @williamstome and Friederike Eyssel! 🤖 #HRI
The money used by the NYPD for this surveillance robot (which will accelerate incarceration) is money that could have been used for non-policing programs that actually reduce "crime", such as housing, health, and education programs.
✨Super-proud to announce this symposium in collaboration with the @Center_HT (@Psych_Tech) and @TUeEAISI (Oct 6th). We will discuss biases and social justice in #SocialRobotics at @TUeindhoven ✨
Hurry up to register, we have only 95 spots available!

The new pre-print of my scoping review “Robot's Gendering Trouble: A Scoping Review of Gendering Humanoid Robots and its Effects on HRI” with @LisyDominika is available online: https://t.co/1P17gV0xGM
Huge shout-out to @_latishaboor for helping us with the figures!
2+ years of hard (but enjoyable!) work & conversation across HRI / HCI / interaction design & gender studies went into this paper - we hope it makes feminist scholarship (and it’s relevance to HRI) a bit more accessible to HRI researchers/developers. Thrilled we got best paper 🎉
Last few days to apply for our wonderful PhD position at @TUeindhoven
If you love to design AI technologies FOR & WITH people with dementia, this is your PhD! https://t.co/ETNLuTpAkm
Supervised by me, @Psych_Tech + Sascha Bolt and Debby Gerritsen from @TilburgU & @Radboud_Uni
**WANTED: YOUR ROBOT BLOOPERS**
For all HRI researchers with imperfect robots (or imperfect trials), we are collecting a dataset of robot failures to use as a research resource. You can contribute here: https://t.co/pWs77OEoqT
(great examples at @HRI_Conference , come through!)
Ericka Johnson and Katherine Harrison were the people who sparked my interest in gender research! So great to see Ericka on stage as a keynote at the @HRI_Conference!

Together with a new dataset we collected to complement the ROBO-GAP, the STereotypes in ROBOts (STROBO) dataset!

Excited to present my paper today at the @HRI_Conference
We tried to understand if normativized body appearances of robots influence people’s stereotyping. Turns out they do!
