Exploring Inclusive Robots: Future of Work

David Abbink from Delft University of Technology, the current winner of the prestigious Stevin bonus, shares insights on his research on the future of work. Together with the host, Dr. Claudia Werker from the same university, he has been working together in a vision team on robots at work. This is the last episode of our podcast series on Inclusive Research and Innovation (IRI) in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) before the summer break. David Abbink is a full professor in haptic human-robot interaction and a mechanical engineer specializing in sensory motor control. He shares his journey from initially focusing on human-robot interaction within traditional engineering disciplines to embracing a more interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary approach. This approach involves collaborating with social scientists, designers, and industry stakeholders to develop innovative and inclusive technological solutions. David highlights the significance of considering the diverse needs of workers in different industries throughout the research and development process. The goal of technological interventions are not only to improve efficiency but also job satisfaction and inclusivity. He emphasizes the importance of responsible research and innovation in his interdisciplinary work and discusses the challenges of adapting technologies to diverse and challenging work environments.

episode Inclusive Mobility Systems for Everyone artwork
Inclusive Mobility Systems for Everyone

Needs in mobility differ considerably for people of different age, gender, income, and environmental awareness. In the episode of our podcast series on Inclusive Research and Innovation (IRI) in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) Mara Tanelli from Politecnico di Milano shares how to develop inclusive mobility systems for everyone with the host, i.e. Claudia Werker from Delft University of Technology. In particular, Mara discusses how researchers can utilize data to construct these systems by focusing on technology adoption drivers, building social networks, and designing equitable policies within her data-driven framework. She highlights the importance of data privacy and the value of interdisciplinary collaboration with social scientists and policymakers to create inclusive technologies.    Mara Tanelli combines her tasks as a full professor in Automatic Control at Politecnico Milano with being her rector’s delegate for diversity and inclusion. Mara and Claudia are both members of the IDEA League’s working group on Gendered and Inclusive Research and Innovation. In this network, they have been working on how to make inclusive research and innovation the gold standard in STEM research and innovation.

Inclusive Design for Medical Devices in Surgery

How can researchers make the design of medical devices more inclusive? Measuring characteristics of patients correctly can make all the different, e.g. in surgery, because it improves effectiveness of outcomes. In this episode of our podcast series on Inclusive Research and Innovation (IRI) in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM), Prof. Dr. Domenico Della Volpe from Geneva University shares insights on his research with the host, Dr. Claudia Werker from Delft University of Technology. Both have been working on the @ATTRACT  [https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.linkedin.com%2Fcompany%2Fattract-eu%2Fabout%2F&data=05%7C02%7CF.Konstantinidis%40student.tudelft.nl%7Cdeac404da9e44650207d08dc69a0a922%7C096e524d692940308cd38ab42de0887b%7C0%7C0%7C638501385944624826%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=Jw34fuzZnAdppJrper4AEqCM7J5YmrtYGhlAiMviLAQ%3D&reserved=0]project: Domenico on the engineering side and Claudia on the business side of the project. Dominico Della Volpe is a particle physicist with a keen interest in Radio-Guided Surgery (RGS) in nuclear medicine. In this podcast, he shares his journey developing a new medical device, POSICS-2, for tumor treatment through RGS, highlighting how the diverse needs of individuals influence the final design of such devices. Domenico stresses both the vital role of interdisciplinary collaboration and the need to address unconscious biases in research to make Inclusive Research and Innovation in STEM happen.

Inclusive Speech Recognition and Processing

Speech recognition and processing tools are everywhere – from speech-to-text transcription, to voice commands on your phone, to filtering background noise in video calls. However, many automatic speech recognition systems do not perform as well with diverse speakers, i.e. people with an accent, with a speech impediment, or even young or old speakers. Adjusting this technology to recognize different ways of speaking has the potential to make these systems and the tools that depend on them more accessible and inclusive. What challenges and opportunities are there for developing and using more inclusive speech recognition and processing? In this episode of our podcast series Inclusive Research and Innovation (IRI) in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics, Dr. Claudia Werker from Delft University of Technology talks to her colleague Dr. Odette Scharenborg from the same university. Dr. Scharenborg’s research looks at how to improve speech recognition systems for non-standard speakers. She explains that while acquiring and processing the varied data she needs for her work is challenging, it has also led to opportunities to connect with diverse speakers, to advocate for them, and to help them practically navigate using speech recognition tools.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.
Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
