Our Role
PAL Robotics played a pivotal role in SocSMCs, an EU-funded project focused on understanding the biological and cognitive mechanisms that shape human interactions. By leveraging our REEM-C humanoid robot, we enabled cutting-edge experiments in Human-Human and Human-Robot interactions, helping researchers analyze how humans respond, synchronize, and anticipate movements in social settings.
By integrating REEM-C into trials, PAL Robotics supported scientific breakthroughs in social robotics, paving the way for robots that can interpret and respond to human behavior with greater sensitivity. These advancements contribute to the long-term goal of creating socially competent robots that can collaborate naturally with humans in various environments, including healthcare, education, and customer service.
Key responsibilities
- Providing the REEM-C humanoid robot for SocSMCs project trials and experiments.
- Collaborating with researchers to integrate REEM-C into studies on Human-Human and Human-Robot interactions.
- Offering technical support and expertise to ensure REEM-C’s smooth operation during trials.
- Assisting in data collection on human reactions and behaviors during interactions with REEM-C.
- Integrating feedback from trials to improve REEM-C’s social competence and interaction abilities.
- Documenting trial outcomes and reporting findings to project stakeholders.
- Ensuring ethical guidelines and standards are followed in interactions with REEM-C, prioritizing participant safety and well-being.
