Microsoft Future Leaders in Robotics and AI Seminar Series, February 16, 2024: Merihan Alhafnaw

Microsoft Future Leaders in Robotics and AI Seminar Series: Expressive robot swarms and multi-human-swarm interaction for social applications Online Seminar Merihan Alhafnaw Postdoctoral Fellow Princeton University Robot swarms can be used as a new and exciting medium through which people can express themselves to one another. The swarm can help facilitate social group tasks that people might face in their daily lives. A robot swarm could especially be useful due to its distributed nature that helps with scaling to many robots and many users. In her talk, Merihan will present her research that focuses on designing, building and applying expressive robot swarms that support simultaneous interactions with many people in social tasks. During her PhD, Merihan designed and built MOSAIX, a swarm of 100 robot Tiles, that was applied in group tasks such as brainstorming, decision-making and collective art. MOSAIX was used in many public events by more than 400 people. In her postdoctoral research, Merihan combines swarm robotics and architecture to create self-adaptive structures that respond to the environment and human interaction.
