About

Lukas Grasse is a researcher at the intersection of human-robot interaction, assistive robotics, and biologically inspired cognitive systems. His work focuses on making robots more accessible and intuitive to control, particularly for vulnerable populations and in high-stakes environments. Grasse’s most cited paper, “Speech Interaction to Control a Hands-Free Delivery Robot for High-Risk Health Care Scenarios” (2021, 24 citations), addresses a critical need during the Covid-19 pandemic by enabling contactless, voice-controlled robot operation to protect healthcare workers and patients. He has also made notable contributions to robot perception and social cognition, including a biologically inspired framework for memory-based multi-sensory joint attention (2021, 8 citations) and a Bayesian system for noise-robust binaural sound localisation on humanoid robots (2019, 7 citations). His recent work extends speech-based control to lower limb exoskeletons, developing motion planning strategies for safer human-robot interaction. By combining principles from cognitive science, signal processing, and robotics, Grasse is advancing the usability and autonomy of robotic systems in healthcare, rehabilitation, and everyday assistance.
