About

Euijung Yang is a pioneering researcher in human-robot interaction (HRI), with a focus on the psychological and physiological impacts of robotic teleoperation. Her work centers on understanding how time delay—the lag between user input and system feedback—affects not only task performance but also emotional and cognitive states. In her most-cited study (2017, 48 citations), Yang demonstrated that variable time delays significantly impair user emotion, cognition, and physiological responses, revealing critical insights for designing more responsive teleoperation systems. Her earlier work (2015, 32 citations) further established that time delay directly influences user arousal and satisfaction, laying foundational knowledge for improving HRI in remote or latency-prone environments. Yang’s research bridges engineering and psychology, offering practical guidance for developing robots that maintain user engagement and trust despite technical constraints. While her earlier exploration of human motion analysis for assistive "silver robots" (2012) received fewer citations, it reflects her enduring commitment to enhancing human-robot collaboration. With her studies collectively cited over 80 times, Yang’s contributions are vital for advancing teleoperation in fields like healthcare, disaster response, and space exploration, where real-time interaction is often compromised by distance.
