About
Bing Chen is an emerging researcher at the intersection of human-robot interaction (HRI) and multisensory communication, with a particular focus on how crossmodal sensory stimuli shape user perceptions of social robots. Their pioneering work explores the largely uncharted territory of olfactory influences in human-computer interaction, investigating how scent and voice congruence together affect how users emotionally and socially perceive robotic systems. By bringing together sensory psychology, affective computing, and HRI design, Chen's research challenges the predominantly visual and auditory paradigms that dominate the field, opening new avenues for richer, more immersive robot-human experiences. Chen's 2025 study on crossmodal interactions in human-robot communication represents a bold step toward understanding how olfactory stimuli can evoke emotional depth and enhance user engagement with social robots — an area that remains vastly underexplored. Though early in citation trajectory with 1 citation, the novelty and interdisciplinary ambition of this work position it as a potentially influential contribution to next-generation social robotics design. For students and researchers in HRI, affective computing, or sensory UX, Chen's scholarship offers a thought-provoking lens through which to rethink how robots might one day communicate with the full breadth of human sensory experience.
