Abstract
STS researchers like me have a thing about nosing around other people’s labs. Ignore us, we say. Won’t bother you. We’re just here observing your routines, your cultures, your politics, and how you stir them into technology in the making. That was exactly my pitch to roboticists at BRL. They were taking technology from their lab and testing them in care homes amongst actual users. Or was that on actual users. Either way, I was here to find out the hows and whys of robotics testing in the wild
