About
Ziwei Chi is a pioneering researcher in human-robot interaction and emotionally intelligent design, with a focus on bridging the gap between digital devices and human emotional needs. Their most notable contribution is the development of ORBO, an anthropomorphic robot designed to enhance smartphone interaction through peripheral, emotion-aware engagement. In their 2024 paper "ORBO: The Emotionally Intelligent Anthropomorphic Robot Enhancing Smartphone Interaction" (4 citations), Chi introduced a novel framework that integrates emotional intelligence into robotic companions, enabling them to respond to users' affective states without disrupting primary tasks. This work was further refined in "Eye See You: The Emotionally Intelligent Anthropomorphic Robot Enhancing Smartphone Interaction" (1 citation), which deepened the exploration of non-intrusive, emotionally resonant interfaces. Chi’s research addresses the growing need for empathetic technology in an increasingly screen-dominated world, positioning ORBO as a tool for enhancing well-being and connectivity. With a total of 5 citations across their early-career publications, Chi is establishing a foundation for future innovations in emotionally adaptive robotics, making their work highly relevant for students and researchers interested in the intersection of design, psychology, and artificial intelligence.
