Araujo de Aguiar
Ph.D. Student
Design + Environmental Analysis
Office
Founded in three main bodies of knowledge - HCI, Environmental Psychology and Architectural Robotics - Carlos' research explores how distributed, responsive systems can foster social interaction and place attachment in human inhabitants. In addition, Carlos is also contributing to the development of the home+ project enabling aging in place, such that his broader aim is to make a more capacious living environment for older people both inside and outside their homes.
