The Prosthetics Lab develops biomimetic artificial limbs, wearable human–machine interfaces, and technologies supporting their industrialization and scalable manufacturing. Its core research focuses on humanoid robotic hands for prosthetic and teleoperation/ industrial applications, integrating advanced manufacturing and textile technologies. Another major area is rehabilitation robotics, particularly the development of a soft robotic exoskeleton using the Faculty’s emulated elastic actuator (“software spring”) for habilita-tion and rehabilitation, supported by AI-driven control systems. The lab also investigates digital twins for personalized rehabilitation by integrating movement, physiological, and sensor data to optimize therapy and monitor recovery. Research extends to AI- and robotics-enabled rehabilitation environments with intelligent sensing, fall detection, physiological monitoring, and caregiver support for hospitals, rehabilitation centers, nurs-ing homes, and home care . Additional work includes multimodal AI assistants for people with disabilities, providing communication, navigation, and health monitoring support . The lab also conducts AI-based movement analysis, combining sensor and computer vision data for objective rehabilitation assessment, personalized feedback, and applications in sports performance and injury prevention.
