Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolHashini Senaratne is a research scientist specializing in Human-Centered AI and human-robot teaming with 12 years of experience spanning academia and industry across Australia and Sri Lanka. Currently at CSIRO Robotics, she translates multidisciplinary domain needs—health, education, disaster response and agriculture—into adaptive interfaces, multimodal analytics, and wearable-enabled assistive systems. Her PhD work on detecting temporal phases of everyday anxiety underpins a practical focus on temporally adaptive, user-driven assistive technologies. She has a strong engineering background from roles as a software engineer and lecturer, and a history of leading student technology initiatives that scaled national robotics and programming events. Known for combining rigorous algorithm design with iterative user-experience refinement, she brings both hands-on system implementation and human-centred evaluation to real-world robotic teams. An often-overlooked strength is her track record in translating research prototypes into educational toolkits and accessible electronics for people with disabilities.
