About
Nicola Camp is an emerging researcher specializing in human-robot interaction (HRI), social assistive robotics, and aging technology, with a particular focus on improving quality of life for older adults and vulnerable populations. Her work bridges psychology, robotics, and gerontology, addressing how social robots and sensor technologies can support independent living and well-being at home. One of Camp's most influential contributions is her systematic review of psychometric instruments used in HRI research, which has quickly garnered 15 citations since its 2024 publication, providing the field with a rigorous methodological resource for measuring psychological dimensions in human-robot studies. Her research consistently champions equity, investigating how low socioeconomic status and motor impairments shape older adults' access to and experiences with assistive technologies — a notably underexplored area in the field. Camp has also explored how robot-assisted support affects cognitive load during daily tasks, offering practical insights for robot design and deployment. Her 2022 study on community-dwelling older adults' perceptions of social robots laid important groundwork for subsequent mixed-methods investigations. With publications across leading journals and a growing citation record, Camp is establishing herself as a thoughtful and socially conscious voice in assistive robotics research.
