About
Nahoko Kusaka is a researcher dedicated to exploring the intersection of human-robot interaction and community-driven technology development. Her work centers on how collaborative, multigenerational groups can leverage robotics to foster inclusive learning environments and practical innovation. In her most-cited paper, "Multigenerational Collaboration to Create a Community of Practice Through Robot Application Development" (2018), Kusaka demonstrates how diverse age groups—from children to seniors—can co-create robotic applications, transforming technology from a tool into a catalyst for social cohesion and shared expertise. This study, with three citations, highlights her focus on participatory design and the social dynamics of technology adoption, offering a blueprint for building sustainable communities of practice around robotics. Kusaka’s contributions are particularly notable for bridging technical development with social impact, emphasizing that the success of robotic systems depends not only on engineering but on the human networks they empower. Her work inspires researchers and students to consider how technology can be designed collaboratively, making her a thoughtful voice in the fields of human-robot interaction and community informatics.
