Shruti Shreya

RESEARCH ASSISTANT - CENTRE OF ROBOTICS RESEARCH (CORE) AT KING’S COLLEGE LONDON | CYBERPSYCHOLOGIST

My interests focus on Human Factors Engineering for mental health and psychosocial needs of vulnerable populations using behavioural studies dedicated towards efficacious design and development of Robotic Assistive tech. As a Cyberpsychologist, I try to study the relationships between humans and digital technologies, as well as various phenomena relating to AI & the Internet, which I have now begun translating towards interaction studies involving Socially Assistive Robots using psychological paradigms. My other interests include combining eXtended-Reality (XR) with Robotics and leveraging AI & Robotics for Neurodivergence-inclusivity. As an early-career researcher at KCL, I am currently developing a project for the co-design of a social robot catering to the mental well-being of children. In short, I am a budding RoboPsychologist.

I am also an avid fan of sci-fi, art & fashion, and a hobby dancer, always enthusiastic about exploring different creative expressions or finding unique ways to combine them with technology for mental health benefits.
