Honoured to share our #affectivehaptics work with the @Eurohaptics2024 community and meet the researchers whose research I admire a lot!✨. Seeing our paper in the award slide deck was so exciting! 🏆. Grateful to @Karonmaclean @anderouusberg and all my colleagues from @UBC_CS 🌻

Just did the 2nd lecture of #HCI course I’m teaching this semester! And wow! What a surreal experience it is to teach about a field you love and studied for years. In-class moments of being in the ultimate flow. Invigorating. Won’t trade this feeling for anything! Grateful!😇✨👩🏫.

Question for #affectivehaptics #affectivecomputing researchers. What physiological sensor suite do you all use for data collection? . We are particularly interested in heart rate (ecg or ppg), galvanic skin response, breathing rate. Blood oxygenation, skin temperature is a plus.

Met @robothika Prof. Radhika Nagpal at DLS @UBC_CS Her work on bio-inspired robots is exceptional pushing boundaries of how we think about swarm robotics. Her story from her PhD to TT @Harvard is even more inspirational! Highly motivated as I navigate the last year of my PhD. ✨

3 years since @jsonx99, myself and many others began this project. We finally presented to #UIST2024 I’m very excited to continue this work and model emotions from shear and pressure data captured by our novel sensor. #affective #haptics #softsensors #HRI

Check out our work on ShearSense at #UIST2024 We demonstrate interplay between shear, pressure, and individuality evaluating affective touch on a soft capacitive sensor. Not at UIST this year but my amazing colleagues are. Go say hi to.@dev_mclaren @jsonx99 ✨#affectivehaptics
