Topic

The research will investigate the factors influencing office privacy attitudes to inform the creation of a versatile privacy toolkit. This toolkit, grounded in a socio-technical study, will be designed to understand and implement privacy in office environments and adaptable for use in other contexts, such as hospitals. It will focus on identifying key privacy elements that affect the integration of social robots in professional settings. This set of practical tools will enhance the ability of social robots to respect and maintain privacy constraints in different environments.
