Research and Analysis of Robot – Human Collaboration and Communication relevant to Hong Kong for Dense Urban Delivery

This white paper, initiated by APAS and written by the MIT Media Lab City Science Group, explores multi-modal robot-to-human communication in the deployment of delivery robots—combining motion, lights, text, and audio cues. The study reveals how these signals influence human trust and predictability in dense urban environments like Hong Kong, offering a blueprint that prioritizes human movement and public infrastructure.
