Earlier this year, the HRI Design Retreat brought together experts from academia and industry in the field of design for human-robot interaction (HRI). During the two-day event, which featured hands-on interactive activities, participants explored the future of design for HRI, how this could be shaped, and worked on a roadmap for the next five-ten years.
The retreat was organised by Patrícia Alves-Oliveira and Anastasia Kouvaras Ostrowski, and you can see a short documentary about it below:
