About
Hyunmin Lee is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of human-robot interaction, service robotics, and performative design. Their most influential work, "The Human-Robot Ensemble: Designing Expressive Movements for Restaurant Service Robots" (2025, 3 citations), introduces a groundbreaking framework for integrating robots into complex social environments like fine-dining restaurants. Drawing on dramaturgical principles, Lee demonstrates how expressive, choreographed movements can foster human acceptance and seamless collaboration between robots and staff. This research redefines robot functionality beyond mere utility, emphasizing aesthetic and emotional resonance in real-world settings. Lee’s contributions are particularly notable for bridging robotics with performance studies, offering a novel methodology that prioritizes social harmony and user experience. With a growing citation impact, their work is shaping the future of service robotics, inspiring designers and engineers to consider robots as ensemble members rather than tools. Lee’s achievements mark a significant step toward human-robot coexistence in everyday life.
