About the OHMC

The OHMC project is financed by the Cambridge University Academic Seed Fund. 

With this help, we are building a programme of research which will enable us to recreate a wide range of realistic scenarios, for example:

• a doctor indialogue with a human subject conducting a test using equipment which can offer diagnostic advice;
• a robotassistant navigating a busy social setting such as a shop or street scene;
• people and machines workingtogether to complete assembly or inspection tasks;
• a human using an intelligent system to monitorrehabilitation after illness or injuryor undertake training.

The OHMC equipment will also enable us to conduct experiments involving people working together without intelligent systems: understanding the fundamentals of human-human collaboration is integral to delivering effective human-machine partnerships.We hope that this scenario-setting ability will attract interest and engagement from across the University,and seed novel collaborations and interactions.
