Our Human Mode Robotics team had a great time collaborating with OSU and ASU on some of their exciting and practical grant work in robotics this past year.
This particular study dove into understanding customer preferences when interacting with service robots, which is a very practical subject since we will all be interacting with more service robots in the future.
To help facilitate OSU and ASU's University Grant Research, we were able to lend our robotics and software development skills to build a custom robot UI (user interface) according to their requirements that automatically generates avatars with varying personality elements so researchers could measure human customer engagement with them. Our robotics engineers also built a quick serving robot chassis that could maneuver in a restaurant environment and capture customer orders.
A big thanks to Dr. Lisa Slevitch from OSU's School of Hospitality and Tourism Management, Dr. Katsiaryna Siamionava from ASU for including us in the project, and Dr. Skye Cooley from OSU for building connections between local researchers and industry partners.
We love seeing #OSU and #Oklahoma educators driving robotics innovation in the state, and are excited to be a part of it.

Check out our work in dexterous hand! This hand can be fully teleoperated through VR from an operator from far away. Expect to see similar hands added to our humanoid robots in the future!

We had a great conference season this year and got a lot of attention for progress on Bipedal robots.
Also, encouraged to see Oklahomans excited and engaged in our work in creating a digital twin of downtown #OKC in our @massiveloopvr metaverse platform!
We had a great time attending the inaugural OSU Future of Work Summit! We hope you enjoyed interacting with our immersive VR metaverse #MassiveLoop, and seeing our legged robots designed and fabricated by @HumanModeTech. Thanks for having us!
We are Human Mode, an Oklahoma City-based research company taking steps towards a more robotic future.
See our work in legged robotics leading up to our newest robot, the Lynx VR7 quadruped.

Meet the Lynx VR6: a happy, hopping, lightweight quadruped robot built by Human Mode. #Robotics
- Piloted through #VR
- Can jump!
- Minimalized design
- Retractable claw
- Reduced number of actuators
- Tarp cover to protect from environmental elements
We'll be at the InnoTech Oklahoma 2022 tech conference this year on October 19th! Come by our booth #225, grab a T-shirt and see Massive Loop in action. #Metaverse#VR#Tech#Robots#AI
How will the metaverse impact your business?
William Kerber III joins us for #InnoTechOK to chat about a practical perspective on the metaverse paradigm and its possible trajectory. https://t.co/qAr2qEWf6S

Introducing the Lynx, our quadruped prototype robot.
We built the Lynx to test theories in legged robotics. It currently demonstrates the ability to traverse inclines using basic gait patterns, and a self-balancing algorithm. #Quadruped#Robotics
