Psychology

In today's fastpaced technological world, the intersection of psychology and robotics is more crucial than ever. Understanding human behavior is essential in designing intelligent systems that can interact with, learn from, and adapt to human needs. “Psychology” explores this essential aspect within the broader framework of robotics science, offering insights into how psychological principles are integrated into robotic systems and how these systems can benefit from psychological research.
