Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal publishes research on human-robot interaction (HRI), focusing on how humans perceive, interact with, and are affected by robots. Topics include the design of robotic touch, the integration of robots into human teams, trust repair in human-robot systems, and the social and ethical implications of robot deployment. The scope also covers robot embodiment, communication, and the development of expressive behaviors for robots. Additionally, it addresses the use of robots in various contexts such as healthcare, education, and scientific missions, and explores user perceptions of robot safety, privacy, and anthropomorphism.
