About
Minori Unno is a pioneering researcher in the field of telepresence robotics and immersive virtual experiences, with a focus on breaking down physical barriers to human exploration. Her most notable contribution is the development of the "Dual Robot Avatar" system, which enables real-time multispace experiences by combining telepresence robots with walk sensation feedback and viewpoint sharing. This innovative work allows users to virtually tour multiple locations simultaneously, addressing a fundamental limitation of physical space. While her research is still in its early stages, with her most-cited paper garnering 3 citations, Unno's work represents a significant step toward making simultaneous remote presence a practical reality. Her approach uniquely integrates haptic feedback with visual telepresence, creating a more immersive and embodied virtual touring experience. As a researcher pushing the boundaries of human-computer interaction and robotics, Unno's work has the potential to transform fields ranging from tourism and education to remote collaboration and accessibility, offering new ways for people to experience distant places without leaving their physical location.
