About
Lorenzo Pugi is a researcher at the forefront of human-robot interaction, with a particular focus on how social robots can enhance learning and emotional development in children. His work centers on the intersection of robotics, cognitive science, and education, exploring how robots like the NAO can serve as tools for engagement. In his highly regarded 2024 study, "Exploring Emotional and Cognitive Engagement in School Age Children: An In-Depth Analysis of Interaction with the NAO Social Robot During the Storytelling Activity," Pugi conducted a nuanced analysis of how children emotionally and cognitively respond to robotic storytellers. This work, already garnering 4 citations in a short time, demonstrates his ability to bridge theoretical frameworks with practical, observable outcomes. Pugi’s contributions are significant for designing more responsive, empathetic educational technologies, and his research is shaping how we understand the role of social robots in developmental contexts. His findings offer valuable insights for educators, roboticists, and psychologists, positioning him as a rising voice in the field of socially assistive robotics.
