You can build your own remotely controllable robot character easily with the free software at https://t.co/aGAJidG2dK, developed by @sbeleidy et al.

Teleoperated social robots are being increasingly used in therapy. How do experts think about therapy itself, & how can this help us design social robots to better meet therapists' needs?

@sbeleidy and @TerranMott explore in their @ACM_CSCW paper!

Over the past few years we've been advocating for teleoperation in many Socially Assistive Robotics contexts. But there are key equity challenges to be addressed when using this approach, as analyzed by @sbeleidy in his @ieeeroman paper with @beth_reddy

ICAR's Advocacy Counsel, Noor Hamadeh, speaks on IUU fishing during Capitol Hill Ocean Week. "Forced Labor is endemic to IUU fishing. Distant water fishing fleets trap workers at sea for years without access to wifi, the outside world and their loved ones." #CHOW2023 #IUUfishing

[MIRRORLab @MIRRORLab]

We're excited for all the MIRRORLab Papers that'll be presented at @ieeeroman this year! Here's a sneak peek (titles pending) of what to look out for: 🧵

Huge Congratulations to @MIRRORLab / @CSatMines / @coschoolofmines' ~**Dr. Ruchen Wen**~ for successfully defending her dissertation, "Context-Sensitive Representations, Reasoning, and Communication for Morally and Socially Competent Robots"!!! 🥳🤓🤖🧵

[Alexandra Bejarano @abejarano20]

Made it to Stockholm today!
Looking forward to giving a ⚡talk during the HRCI workshop @HRI_Conference on "Conversations with Identity Performing Robots: Considerations for Algorithms and Interfaces"

I'm a bit jet lagged but hopefully I won't sound too much like a minion...

This practical guide, authored by @noor_ham12, @maitelsadany, and @yasminoviech, presents a menu of options to welcome lawyers to the world of corporate accountability and to highlight the mechanisms that are available and relevant to the MENA region: https://t.co/Ipq79EOVUi

[Estelle Smith 🌟 @EstelleSmithPhD]

Folks in #HCI studying social support, health, wellbeing, online communities: I’m putting together a follow list to help us get coordinated:
1️⃣Please comment or DM with your mastodon handle if you’d like!
2️⃣I’ll cc some folks here to seed this, but plz RT! 🧠😵‍💫

[Saad Elbeleidy @sbeleidy]

Excited to share this blog post summarizing our 2022 Alt.HRI paper!

[Mines Robotics @MinesRobotics]

⚠️The future of [socially assistive] robots need not be autonomous⚠️

Hear why in @sbeleidy's new blog post, based on his alt.HRI 2022 paper
"Practical, Ethical, and Overlooked: Teleoperated Socially Assistive Robots in the Quest for Autonomy".

[Saad Elbeleidy @sbeleidy]

@beth_reddy @qzhu0723 When we were looking at publishing an ml ethics microinsertion paper, I believe we looked at SIGCSE for a conference paper. I think TOCE would be the relevant/equivalent journal. It's general CS education though and not AI specific.

Presenting again in around 20 minutes if you want to stop by the doctoral consortium section of Hall J at #CHI2022 / #CHI2022nola

[Saad Elbeleidy @sbeleidy]

I'll be presenting my doctoral consortium poster at #CHI2022 in about 30 minutes. Stop by if you want to learn more about dialogue teleoperation interfaces for socially assistive robots!

Made it to #nola for #CHI2022 and super excited for my first in-person academic conference! Doctoral consortium starts in the morning where I'll get to share what I'm working on at the @MIRRORLab - Improving teleoperation interfaces to support therapists in robot-assisted therapy

[@tomwilliams.phd on bsky @williamstome]

The @MIRRORLab is getting psyched for @HRI_Conference next week, but it's going to be a busy week for us!

Make sure to look out for...
