Learning the handoff.
A controlled integration program focused on the smallest useful unit of collaboration: perceiving an offered object, approaching at the right speed, receiving it safely, and confirming completion in a way a person can immediately understand.

Goal
Make close-range human–robot exchange predictable, legible, and comfortable.
Setup
Tabletop objects, marked zones, supervised autonomy, varied users, and repeatable task sequences.
What we are learning
Where motion timing, gaze, hand position, and verbal cues reduce hesitation and failed transfers.
