The lab develops human-centred solutions for the care, rehabilitation and multifactorial assessment of frail individuals. The activities carried out in the lab include the development of robotic and digital devices and technologies, the acquisition and analysis of biometric, biomechanical and physiological data, and the development and testing of artificial intelligence techniques and algorithms and multisensory control algorithms. The development, integration and validation activities of the proposed solutions are carried out in collaboration with research centres, universities, clinics and companies and are part of nationally and internationally funded research projects, experimental campaigns and industrial orders.
