Profile: I joined the Natural Robotics Lab at The University of Sheffield in October 2019. I received an MSci degree in Robotics and Intelligent Systems from King's College London. My research focuses on how a team of human operators can effectively share the control of a large number of robots. The approach taken considers each operator to be in charge of a different group of robots. The operators can request for more or give robots to each other depending on their current needs.
