About
Antonio Jerez is a researcher at the forefront of socially assistive robotics (SAR), focusing on the design, implementation, and real-world evaluation of robots that support the health and well-being of older adults. His work centers on bridging the gap between robotic technology and its acceptance in care settings, particularly retirement homes. Jerez’s major contributions include the development of the “Town Crier” robot, a use-case design aimed at improving long-term adherence and utility of SARs. His most cited paper, “An User-Centered Evaluation of Two Socially Assistive Robots Integrated in a Retirement Home” (2024, 9 citations), provides critical insights into user experience and the challenges of integrating robots into daily care routines. With a total of 18 citations across his top works, Jerez’s research highlights the importance of user-centered design in overcoming issues of acceptability and long-term engagement. His work is notable for its practical focus on real-world deployment, offering valuable guidance for future developments in assistive technologies for aging populations.
