About
Yuya Mitsui is a researcher at the forefront of human-robot interaction, with a particular focus on the social and emotional dynamics that shape user experiences in public spaces. His work centers on understanding and mitigating the embarrassment and discomfort people feel when interacting with communication robots in real-world settings—a critical barrier to widespread adoption. In his most-cited paper, "Changes in Embarrassment Through Repeated Interactions with Robots in Public Spaces" (2023, 4 citations), Mitsui demonstrates that repeated exposure can significantly reduce users' initial embarrassment, offering a practical pathway for integrating robots into everyday environments. This contribution is notable for its longitudinal approach, moving beyond one-off studies to capture how comfort evolves over time. By addressing the psychological hurdles of public robot use, Mitsui’s research has direct implications for service, retail, and healthcare robotics, where user acceptance is paramount. His work is a valuable resource for students and researchers exploring the intersection of social robotics, emotion, and human-centered design.
