About
Pranati Nanda is a pioneering researcher in the field of human-robot interaction, with a specialized focus on rehabilitation robotics and assistive technologies. Her work centers on developing intelligent systems that bridge the gap between human physiology and robotic assistance, particularly for individuals recovering from motor impairments. Nanda’s major contributions include the design and implementation of a wireless upper extremity motion capture system for rehabilitation robots, which enables precise tracking of arm movements to guide therapy. This foundational work has garnered 21 citations, highlighting its influence on subsequent rehabilitation robotics research. She has also advanced myoelectric control schemes, using time-delayed neural networks to interpret electromyographic (EMG) signals from the elbow and shoulder joints. This innovative approach, detailed in her 2009 paper with 14 citations, allows for more natural and responsive control of prosthetic or rehabilitative devices by decoding muscle activity in real time. Through her integration of neural networks and motion capture, Nanda has laid critical groundwork for non-invasive, adaptive robotic systems that enhance patient recovery, making her a notable figure in the evolution of human-centered robotics and physical rehabilitation technology.
