Wendy Ju is an associate professor at the Jacobs Technion-Cornell Institute at Cornell Tech and in the information science field at Cornell University. She is also on the faculty at Technion – Israel Institute of Technology. Dr. Ju comes to Cornell Tech from the Center for Design Research at Stanford University, where she was Executive Director of Interaction Design Research, and from the California College of the Arts, where she was an Associate Professor of Interaction Design in the Design MFA program. Her work in the areas of human-robot interaction and automated vehicle interfaces highlights the ways that interactive devices can communicate and engage people without interrupting or intruding. Dr. Ju has innovated numerous methods for early-stage prototyping of automated systems to understand how people will respond to systems before the systems are built. She has a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from Stanford and a Master’s in Media Arts and Sciences from MIT. Her monograph on “The Design of Implicit Interactions” was published in 2015.

Designing Public Interactions Between People and Autonomous Systems
Tuesday, June 20, 2023, 1pm EDT
Event Overview
Public spaces are some of the most challenging environments in which autonomous systems operate. Unlike workspaces or controlled environments where humans can be trained to work with autonomous systems, or where systems can be built to specifications based on the users, public environments feature a wide variety of people and events. Anything can happen.
To operate in these environments, robots need to be savvy about the norms and social signals that people use to jointly negotiate on the road, sidewalk, and hallway. Cornell Tech’s Wendy Ju will join us for a conversation about current field experiment research from her lab and the fascinating research they’re conducting. This research informs ways that autonomous systems can be designed and developed to more safely operate in public.
