About

Andrey Shaposhnikov is a researcher in social robotics and affective computing, with a focus on developing emotionally intelligent human-robot interaction systems. His most notable contribution is the design and implementation of the "Emotico" emotional social robot, which integrates dopamine (DA) and serotonin (5-HT) neurotransmitter subsystems to model four basic emotions. This work, published in 2019 and cited 6 times, represents a novel approach to embedding psycho-emotional architectures in robotic platforms, bridging computational neuroscience and robotics. Shaposhnikov’s research explores how biologically inspired emotional models can enhance robot social capabilities, making interactions more natural and adaptive. While his citation count is modest, his work contributes to foundational frameworks for emotionally responsive robots, with potential applications in assistive technology and human-robot collaboration. His achievements include advancing the integration of neurochemical-based emotional systems into hardware, offering a pathway toward more empathetic and context-aware autonomous agents.
