About
Chu-Yin Chen is a pioneering researcher working at the intersection of human-robot interaction, choreography, and digital creativity. Her work explores how humanoid robots can become expressive artistic collaborators, pushing the boundaries of what we understand about movement, anthropomorphism, and shared creative experience. Through her research-creation methodology, Chen investigates the nuanced dynamics that emerge when robots are integrated into live dance performances, developing lightweight, real-time gesture-responsive frameworks that empower artists to work intuitively alongside human-sized robotic partners. A central thread running through Chen's scholarship is the concept of digital anthropomorphism — examining how attributing human-like qualities to robots can unlock new creative possibilities and reshape the choreographic process. Her work also ventures into complex social settings, studying how robots influence not just direct interactants but bystanders and third parties in multi-person environments, broadening our understanding of robotic presence in shared social spaces. Though her publication record is still emerging, with cited works accumulating recognition within the HRI and performance communities, Chen's contributions represent a compelling fusion of artistic practice and rigorous inquiry, offering valuable frameworks for designers, choreographers, and roboticists alike.
