Text: Muhammad Anshar, Indonesia, PhD in Computer Science
Muhammad Anshar: I did my Masters previously under IT Faculty – specifically, in the software engineering, in the area of robotics, and then went back home and then continue again for my PhD under the same faculty, but more in the area of human-robot interaction.
So for my PhD at the moment, I’m doing research with the test bed using for this humanoid robot; the name is NAO, and when I did my Masters, I used different platform; it’s AIBO robot.
I’m hoping after finish my study with the knowledge that I’m gaining during the research, I can go back home and then serve it my students – I’m working as a lecturer – doing more understanding about my students about the artificial intelligence in robotics, and then still building long relationships with my supervisor, the collaboration research.
I believe robots are destined to be together with humans in the human in environment, and in 20, 25 years there’ll be a growing number of robots in our environment, shaping and helping human in the everyday of human lives, and that’s the reason why I study robotics in UTS.
I do recommend to new students to study at UTS, as UTS is having a growing number of new robots – it’s a good test bed for research.
