About the research
A helpful robot needs to understand the person beside it.
Read the full research overview
Henny Admoni’s HARP Lab studies how robots infer human intentions, learn from human teachers, and collaborate in everyday tasks. Its projects investigate robots that ask for help when uncertain, models of what a human teacher believes, and shared control that blends human input with robot actions. Assistive robotics provides a practical setting for these questions, including interfaces for people with motor impairments. Selected publications examine transparent robot policies and the feedback preferences of power-wheelchair users controlling a robotic arm.
