About

Shota Sugimoto is a researcher in human-computer interaction, with a focus on telepresence and multi-sensory communication. His key contribution is the concept of "Layered Telepresence," a novel method that enables users to experience simultaneous multi-presence by blending their eye gaze and perceptual awareness with real-time audio-visual information from multiple telepresence robots. This work, first published in 2016, has garnered 20 citations, establishing a foundation for more immersive remote collaboration. Sugimoto’s research addresses the challenge of managing multiple remote viewpoints, allowing users to seamlessly shift attention across different locations. His work is notable for its potential to transform fields like remote teamwork, education, and social interaction, offering a more natural and intuitive way to be present in multiple spaces at once. By integrating human perception with robotic systems, Sugimoto is advancing the frontier of telepresence, making remote experiences feel more connected and less fragmented.
