It was a great start to the new year! 🤩 I had the privilege of visiting IIIT Delhi and deliver a talk on “The Perception and Generation of Facial Cues in Human-Robot Interaction”. I had many insightful discussions & a great time at the institute! #HRI #Robotics #AI

Very happy to see my interview with Vox magazine out now! It was a fun interview where I tried to explain how simple robot behaviors are often a result of the interplay between many AI systems working together. #robotics #HRI #AI #LLM

I had the opportunity to present a poster on our latest work investigating how a robot can signal understanding at the Donders’s Day. Had a wonderful poster session with many insightful discussions. And the cherry on top was winning the poster prize 🏆 #HRI #Robotics
