About
Alessandro Vuono is a leading researcher in the field of socially assistive robotics (SARs), with a specific focus on developing autonomous systems that support the independent living of older adults. His work directly addresses the critical challenge of deploying robots in the unstructured, dynamic environments of private homes. Vuono’s major contributions lie in demonstrating the feasibility of long-term autonomy for mobile robots through innovative remote supervision frameworks. His most-cited study, a 2022 field study on "User feedback and remote supervision for assisted living with mobile robots," with 19 citations, provides empirical evidence on how human-robot interaction can be sustained over extended periods. This work is complemented by his 2021 investigation into remote supervision, which explores how caregivers can effectively monitor and guide robots to ensure user well-being. By tackling the "what is my robot doing?" question, Vuono’s research bridges the gap between technical autonomy and practical, trustworthy deployment, making a significant impact on the future of ageing-in-place technology.
