AI to support customised interactive social robot applications
This project aims to investigate the opportunities of using AI-enabled robot technology, such as humanoid robots, to enhance the employability of people with intellectual disability (ID). We propose that access and retention in employment can be enhanced with learning technologies that can support people to acquire, practice, and maintain job-related skills while creating socially inclusive workplaces. Humanoid robots are being marketed for supporting people with practical tasks in homes and workplaces . As a type of social robot, they have …

Designing smart visual technologies with people with intellectual disability
This area of research is seeking to understand how the meaning of images can be computed and used in the design of intelligent interfaces which can be used by and support people with cognitive disability (intellectual disability, dementia, brain injury), in their homes, their daily lives, or their work.The visual interactions of interest to this research may be embedded in a variety of technologies, including:assistive technologies (e.g. AAC)assistive robots (social robots and humanoid robots)conversational technologies (e.g. voice assistants)tangible technologies (e.g. …
