Design methods, reactive programming, and HRI ‘22

I participated in HRI2022 with two personal goals:

Documenting design methods from human-robot interaction research for my colleagues in the industry.
Documenting interesting ways of applying the reactive programming paradigm to interactive robot application programming tasks.

Here is the HRI design methods talk I presented at the HRI-LSI Workshop Invited Talk:

At the PD/EUP Workshop, HRI 2022 Workshop, I presented a talk on robot application domain-specific language (for details, see the paper):

I also shared my thoughts on testing tooling for robot applications during the Late-Breaking Reports session (for details, see the paper):

It was extremely challenging to pull these off while working, and I’m not 100% sure if they hit the mark with the target audience I had in mind—especially the reactive programming talks. One lesson I’ve learned is that I should probably spend more time understanding my target audience’s interests before preparing talks like these.
