Social robots for engagement in rehabilitative therapies: Design implications from a study with therapists (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

In this paper we present the results of a qualitative study with therapists to inform social robotics and human robot interaction (HRI) for engagement in rehabilitative therapies. Our results add to growing evidence that socially assistive robots (SA... Read More about Social robots for engagement in rehabilitative therapies: Design implications from a study with therapists.

Personalized robot assistant for support in dressing (2018)
Journal Article

Robot-assisted dressing is performed in close physical interaction with users who may have a wide range of physical characteristics and abilities. Design of user adaptive and personalized robots in this context is still indicating limited, or no cons... Read More about Personalized robot assistant for support in dressing.
