Early Imperial Russia Dr Adrian Jones In this subject, students examine the emergence, consolidation and development of Russian state and society in a hitherto 'wild' region in eastern Europe. The formative phase in the political, social and intellectual history of the Tsardom of Muscovy is traced.

He emphasizes that LIREC is unique in this emerging field of enquiry in that it incorporates long-term studies in genuine environments such as an office or a house, and also whether a robot can migrate to different devices, in effect switching bodies. He also covers how his emotion tracker iCat software can identify and recognise faces and expressions and then react to them. This is an ambitious project, incorporating a vast array of interconnected technological, social and philosophical questions: physical robot design, software architecture, modelling the behaviour and emotions of companions as well as their capacity to detect the emotional expressions of humans, not to mention questions of ethics, memory, and longitudinal studies of human-companion relation
