My research focuses on the creation of visual capabilities for robotic platforms. Previously I have investigated anthropomorphic visual systems. Currently, I am exploring cognitive architectures that could enable robotic platforms with making memory informed vision-dominant decisions. Here, Gaze and adaptation of human-like gaze behavior for robotic platforms are priorities. In this context, HRI experiments are utilized to investigate gaze-humanness, memory, play and shared attention.
