AI Robotic systems, Algorithms, C++, Python Programming, UX design
At Toyota Research Institute (TRI), we’re on a mission to improve the quality of human life. We’re developing new tools and capabilities to amplify the human experience. To lead this transformative shift in mobility, we’ve built a world-class team in Human-Centered AI, Human Interactive Driving, Energy and Materials, Machine Learning, and Robotics!
Our HASTEN (Helping Aging Society: Tactile Embodied Nudging) collaborative team brings together complementary research and engineering expertise in physical human-robot interaction, bubblized soft robotics, humanoid systems, software development, user-centered design, and occupational and physical therapy experts. Our team develops robotic technology, sensing, and algorithms for supporting older adults in their homes with activities of daily living that require large amounts of surface contact between people and robots in order for robots to provide supportive assistance, in the context of stability and mobility such as getting up from a chair and dressing.
In these close proximity and directly hands-on physical contact human-robot interactions, safety is paramount! Therefore, the focus of this role will be to develop pHRI algorithms that are robust and provably biomechanically sound such that our end-users feel secure and comfortable when being supported and assisted by our robots. This role is on the RUXID (Robotics UX & Interaction Design) team, which comprises UX researchers and designers, as well as HRI researchers. The RUXID team collaborates closely with TRI's robotics engineering teams.
