About My Mentor
I am fortunate to have Chris Crawford’s guidance and mentorship. He is an accomplished Computer Science researcher affiliated with The University of Alabama. Dr. Crawford brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to our collaboration, and their guidance has been invaluable in shaping my research project.
About My Project
- Problem: There is a lack of research focusing on exploring ways to build educational software that integrates physical robots and physiological sensors.
- Approach: During this project, I will assist a team in designing a system that accomplishes the following:
- Capture physiological data such as EEG and EMG from the human body.
- Process raw sensor data and classify events such as gestures (e.g., arm movements) and emotional states (e.g., attention levels)
- Map output from physiological sensors to a physical robot.
- Expected Outcome: The project is expected to result in a conference poster presentation at the end of the REU program. The poster will focus on the system’s technical architecture.
