“Human-robot interaction (HRI) is a thoroughly interdisciplinary field, bridging computer science, design, psychology, and many other areas of study. Studies of law and policy, however, seldom inform or draw from HRI research. Yet understanding how people and robots interact is critical to developing sensible policy across a variety of public and private sectors.”
