About
Beyza Eroglu is a researcher at the intersection of human-robot interaction, assistive technology, and dementia care. Her work focuses on designing and evaluating socially assistive robots that enhance the well-being of older adults, particularly those living with advanced dementia, and their caregivers. In her most cited study, an exploratory ethnographic investigation within a protected care environment, she examined the potential and social impacts of a social robot equipped with robotic-based exergames. Over two months of qualitative data collection, Eroglu demonstrated how such technologies can foster engagement, reduce agitation, and improve emotional connection for people with advanced dementia—a population often excluded from technology studies. This early work, already garnering 15 citations, highlights her contribution to human-centered robotics and ethical design in sensitive care settings. By centering the lived experiences of both patients and caregivers, Eroglu is shaping a more inclusive, compassionate vision for assistive robotics in gerontechnology.
