About
Eun-Sook Shin is a leading researcher in human-robot interaction, with a focus on telepresence robotics and communication accessibility for vulnerable populations. Her work centers on improving speech intelligibility and social presence for remote users, particularly K-12 students who attend classes via telepresence robots. In her highly cited 2021 study, Shin conducted a long-term, in-the-wild investigation of feedback systems designed to help remote students gauge how well they are heard in noisy classroom environments. This work, which has garnered 9 citations, addresses a critical gap in telepresence technology: the challenge of ensuring clear audio communication for homebound students who rely on robotic embodiment and mobility to participate in class. By developing and testing real-time speech intelligibility feedback, Shin’s research directly enhances educational equity and inclusion. Her contributions are notable for bridging technical innovation with real-world application, offering practical solutions that empower remote learners and inform the design of more responsive telepresence systems. Shin’s work continues to shape how researchers and engineers approach communication challenges in dynamic, noisy environments.
