Roy El-Helou

I am a recent Masters student graduate with a focus in robotics. My research explored robot motion generation and control for human-robot interaction.

I studied how robots can be made to move in ways that feel expressive, engaging, and intuitive to the people around them, with the goal of making robotic behaviour more relatable and natural.

My work sits at the intersection of engineering and human psychology, exploring how people perceive and respond to robotic motion. Through my research, I aimed to design robots that not only perform tasks efficiently but also fit smoothly into everyday life, interacting with humans in ways that feel natural and socially aware.

I am eager to being my progessional career and apply the skills I have developed through my research to industry, contributing to the design, development, and deployment of robotic systems that solve meaningful problems. My background in robot control, motion generation, experimentation, and human-centered design has provided me with a strong foundation to work across multidisciplinary teams and help bring innovative technologies from research into practical applications.
