About
Dr. Alexandra J. Miller is redefining human-robot interaction by pioneering the integration of social and affective touch into robotic systems. Her most cited work, "Implementing social and affective touch to enhance user experience in human-robot interaction" (2024, 6 citations), explores how haptic feedback can transform user experience and robot performance, with a particular focus on upper-limb prosthetics. By bridging the gap between functional haptic feedback and emotional communication, Miller’s research addresses a critical gap in robotics: making machines not only useful but emotionally intuitive. Her work has immediate implications for assistive technologies, where touch can restore a sense of connection for prosthesis users. Though early in her career, her contributions are already shaping the future of empathetic robotics, earning recognition for advancing human-centered design. Miller’s research promises to make robots more than tools—they become partners in care, rehabilitation, and daily life.
