NewMedia Centre Stories

Maak van jouw R&O gesprek een waardevol moment

The brief
Every TU Delft staff member is periodically invited to a Resultaat- en Ontwikkelgesprek. To support that process, we were asked to create a short, dynamic video that would be included with every invitation and underline the value of the conversation.

Behind the scenes
The challenge here was not complexity, but tone. An internal HR-related topic can easily become dry or overly formal, so the video had to feel clear, relevant, and easy to engage with. The goal was to make the message more approachable and to help people see the conversation as something useful, not just procedural.

Why this one stood out
What made this project interesting was its practical role. It was not made to sit on its own, but to work inside an existing process and improve how that process is received. That kind of video asks for precision: short, focused, and effective.

Supermarket Robot: Designing Socially Embedded Service Robots in Virtual Reality

What happens when a robot helps you shop? This question shaped a groundbreaking project led by Dr. Marco Rozendaal, where VR simulations in a supermarket explored how people and robots interact in public spaces. By blending design, theatre, and puppeteering, the research revealed how robots can earn trust and acceptance—not through perfect programming, but by designing behaviors that feel meaningful and socially appropriate.
