About
Jackson Hardin’s research lies at the intersection of human-robot interaction, cultural robotics, and assistive technology. His work explores how users from different cultural backgrounds perceive and interact with multi-robot systems in domestic settings. In his most-cited paper, “How Many Robots Do You Want? A Cross-Cultural Exploration on User Preference and Perception of an Assistive Multi-Robot System” (2021, 4 citations), Hardin addresses a critical gap in the field: while much research has examined cultural differences in human-robot interaction, few studies have focused on non-humanoid, multi-robot systems. His findings reveal that user preferences for robot number, appearance, and behavior vary significantly across cultures, challenging one-size-fits-all design approaches. Hardin’s work has implications for developing culturally adaptive assistive robots that can better serve diverse populations. Though early in his career, his contributions are already shaping how researchers think about cross-cultural design in multi-robot systems. Hardin’s research is particularly relevant as assistive robots become more common in homes worldwide, and his insights help ensure these technologies are inclusive and responsive to varied user needs.
