- Integration of ethical frameworks in robot design
- Initial demonstrations of context-aware multi-robot systems

## Abstract

This paper introduces and overviews a multidisciplinary project aimed at developing responsible and adaptive multi-human multi-robot (MHMR) systems for complex, dynamic settings. The project integrates co-design, ethical frameworks, and multimodal sensing to create AI-driven robots that are emotionally responsive, context-aware, and aligned with the needs of diverse users. We outline the project's vision, methodology, and early outcomes, demonstrating how embodied AI can support sustainable, ethical, and human-centred futures.
