Yuanzhi Cao

As a researcher in Human-Robot Interaction (HRI) with a multi-discipline background, I am constantly seeking the balance between engineering and art, to create intelligent robotic systems with intuitive user interaction. My work focuses on utilizing Augmented Reality and Embodied Authoring to provide users with an in-situ, visual, spatial and contextual experience, for robot animation authoring, task planning, and human-robot collaboration.
