About
Camila Rodrigues is a leading researcher at the intersection of rehabilitation robotics, biomechanics, and neural control. Her work focuses on developing intuitive, human-centered control strategies for powered lower-limb exoskeletons, with a particular emphasis on restoring mobility for individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI). Rodrigues’s foundational contribution is her comprehensive review of electromyography (EMG) onset detection methods for real-time exoskeleton control, which has garnered 65 citations and serves as a key reference for the field. She has advanced this work by benchmarking different control paradigms—trajectory, admittance, and EMG-triggered—to quantify their effects on human-exoskeleton interaction, and by comparing intramuscular versus surface EMG recordings for wearable robot control in SCI rehabilitation. Rodrigues is also pioneering the integration of augmented reality feedback to enhance patient engagement during exoskeleton-assisted walking, demonstrating her commitment to holistic, user-centric rehabilitation solutions. With a growing body of highly cited work, Rodrigues is shaping the future of assistive robotics, bridging the gap between neural signals and seamless robotic assistance.
