- Use Cases of QTrobot in Human-Robot Interaction and Social Robotics Research
The Institute for Biomedical Research and Innovation (IRIB-CNR) in Messina, Italy, has been at the forefront of developing and validating robot-assisted behavioral therapy for autistic children. Over years of clinical […]
A recent study published on arXiv by Elisabetta Zibetti and colleagues explored how children perceive and respond to emotional expressions from humanoid robots — using QTrobot as the experimental platform. […]
Use Case: Enhancing virtual and in-person meetings with relevant visual information, powered by social robotics. The Challenge: Keeping audiences engaged and providing supplementary information during presentations can be challenging, especially […]
Project Summary: QTrobot recently played a central role in Luxembourg’s premier education and career orientation event, Schoulfoire, organized by @YEP. In a dynamic collaboration with the Luxembourg Institute of Science […]
The Challenge: Traditional rehabilitation robots often apply a one-size-fits-all approach to exercise difficulty. However, stroke survivors experience exercise difficulty in very unique ways – what’s hard for one might be […]
Abstract: This study explores a novel approach to designing social educational robots that support student learning without requiring direct domain knowledge. Rather than acting as tutors or experts, the proposed […]
Abstract This pilot study explores the potential of using a humanoid social robot to enhance social interaction skills in adolescents with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Two adolescents, one with severe […]
Development of QTRobot-Assisted Speech-Language Therapy: Co-design with Speech-Language Pathologists
Abstract As the use of social robots in real-world applications continues to grow, there is an increasing need for participatory research to ensure these technologies are effectively tailored to the […]
Abstract As socially assistive robots (SARs) become increasingly integrated into therapeutic settings, trust emerges as a critical factor, particularly when supporting vulnerable populations such as children with neurodevelopmental disorders (NDD). […]
Abstract: Socially assistive robots (SARs) have shown promise in helping children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) develop social skills. However, their effectiveness in group settings remains less understood. In this […]
Abstract: Previous research in human-robot interaction has explored using robots to increase objective and hedonic aspects of well-being and quality of life, but there is no literature on how robots […]
Abstract: Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) researchers focusing on informal care partners and people living with dementia often create personas, incorporating expectations about the pair’s relationship dynamics to guide their research and […]
Abstract: Emotion regulation is a crucial skill for managing emotions in everyday life, yet finding a constructive and accessible method to support these processes remains challenging due to their cognitive […]
Summary: Researchers at the International Islamic University Malaysia have developed a gesture recognition system for QTrobot using MediaPipe, aiming to enhance therapy for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). By […]
Research Summary: This thesis explores the development of a privacy-focused, conversational system for the QTrobot platform, leveraging a Jetson Orin Nano and free and open-source software (FOSS). Building on prior […]
QTrobot has recently been featured by the BBC’s Click program for its innovative use in mental well-being coaching. Developed as part of PhD research at the University of Cambridge, QTrobot […]
Université Paris 8 will host the first session of RobotAct – Human-Robot Co-creations, a research-creation workshop series. This innovative project explores how robots and human actors interact on stage, focusing […]
Can a learning robot help children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) in their therapy journey? A research team from three universities in North Rhine-Westphalia has been investigating this question. Their […]
