• Human Interaction and RObotics (HIRO) Group Website
• Alessandro Roncone

The HIRO group performs research at the intersection of human-robot interaction, artificial intelligence, and robot control & planning. 

 The goal of the group is developing robot technologies that enable close, natural, and extended cooperation with humans. As Director of the HIRO Group, Assistant Professor Alessandro Roncone seeks to lower the barriers to entry for humans to naturally interact with robots, and in doing so he designs robot systems that are able to work with and around people. With a large lab of undergraduate, graduate, and PhD researchers, HIRO Group alumni have gone on to work in industry at companies such as Microsoft, Facebook, Lumen, and Amazon.
