Hello There

My name is Eike, and I am a Postdoctoral Researcher in the Mixed Reality Lab at the University of Nottingham. As part of the TAS Hub, my research investigates autonomous systems and how we can ensure that these are trustworthy. This includes the design and development of these in a responsible manner, i.e., by involving various stakeholders, as well as the interaction with the system itself. Furthermore, I am interested in the impact that the introduction of autonomous systems, including robots, has on the direct interaction with the system and the interpersonal relationships among human collaborators. I use qualitative and quantitative methods to study this interaction in various contexts, such as the domestic space or industry.

I look forward to hearing from you, eike.schneiders@nottingham.ac.uk.
