About

Andrea Bulletti’s research sits at the intersection of humanitarian technology and medical diagnostics, driven by a commitment to saving lives through mechatronic innovation. Her primary contributions lie in developing robotic platforms for landmine detection, where she has pioneered multi-sensor vehicles that combine impulse and holographic ground-penetrating radar (GPR) for the discrimination of mines from clutter. Her work on a remotely-operable robotic device for detecting landmines, UXOs, and IEDs—garnering 10 citations—directly addresses the urgent need for safe, semi-autonomous demining in conflict zones like Eastern Ukraine. Bulletti has also advanced the application of the Industry 4.0 paradigm to create a UWB radiolocation system for humanitarian demining, integrating sensors, robotics, and connectivity. Beyond demining, she has translated her expertise into medical robotics, designing a mechatronic platform for computer-aided detection of cancer nodules via stiffness and ultrasound measurements (8 citations). Her development of a sensorized prodder for detecting buried objects and a high-resolution holographic imaging robot scanner further showcases her versatility. With a portfolio of highly cited papers, Bulletti’s work exemplifies how robotics can solve critical societal challenges, from clearing war-torn landscapes to improving surgical diagnostics.
