About

Carl Matthes is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of neurorobotics, virtual reality, and collaborative scientific infrastructure. His key contributions center on developing immersive, multi-user environments that enable scientists to design, observe, and discuss neurorobotic experiments in real time, regardless of physical location. His most-cited work, "The Collaborative Virtual Reality Neurorobotics Lab" (2019, 23 citations), introduces a groundbreaking platform that couples the Human Brain Project’s Neurorobotics Platform with custom VR interfaces, allowing collocated and remote users to collectively interact with simulated neural systems and robotic bodies. This work is notable for bridging the gap between complex computational neuroscience and accessible, shared visualization—a critical step toward democratizing experimental design. Matthes’s research has been instrumental in advancing the Human Brain Project’s goals, and his emphasis on collaborative VR tools positions him as a key figure in the future of open, reproducible neurorobotics. His achievements reflect a deep commitment to making cutting-edge neurotechnology not only powerful but also participatory.
