My Story
Nils Rublein studied Creative Technology and Interaction Technology at the University of Twente, specializing in Human Robot Interaction.
During his studies he worked as a research engineer in the i-Botics group at the University of Twente on social tele-robotics in context of the ANA Avatar XPRIZE competition. Spefically, he worked on mapping facial expressions from an operator to a robotic face and evaluating the perceived social telepresence by recipients interacting with the tele-robot. Additionally, he created a haptic vest that renders social touch from the robot side to the operator side.
After his studies he continued his role as a research engineer at the i-Botics group within the DASA HaBiTs competition. Here, he worked on haptic guidance for obstacle avoidance to avoid unintended or hazardous motions in safety-critical tele-interaction applications.
Currently Nils is working as a researcher and lecturer at the Smart Mechatronics and RoboTics (SMART) group at Saxion University of Applied Sciences. Here, his work focuses on Sensing and Perception solutions in the field of Unmanned Robotic Systems.
Next to his work as a robotics researcher, he is also an independent audio-visual artist, focusing on the intersection between technology, media and human interaction, exploring novel ways to create immersive musical and visual experiences.
