Take a look! Our little @ProjectEMAR is highlighted among 7 super cool robots funded by @NSF ! @mayacakmak @emmarosephd #Robots #SocialRobots
Whether microscopic or human-sized, inspired by animals or pasta, #NSFfunded scientists and engineers are creating robots that benefit individuals, industry, and society. Take a look at these 7️⃣ : bit.ly/2Q5er9T 📷 : @wyssinstitute at @Harvard #NationalRoboticsWeek

Teens want to talk to robots about their stressors, but what embodiment of the robot do they prefer? Check out our new paper in the International Journal of Child-Computer Interaction @comp_science
Finally our robot embodiment paper is out! LOTS of teens shared their stressors with @RobotEMAR in #VR, on a computer, and physically present. Guess which embodiment they preferred for this activity? authors.elsevier.com/a/1ce2V… @ProjectEMAR @HonsonLing @jeffmatarrese @sim18ran
