About
Charikleia Angelidou is a rising researcher at the intersection of biomechanics, robotics, and human-machine interaction, with a primary focus on advancing lower-limb prosthetic control for real-world environments. Her work addresses a critical gap in assistive technology: the inability of robotic ankle-foot prostheses to adapt to compliant surfaces like grass, carpet, or soil—terrains that dramatically alter gait dynamics and increase fall risk. Angelidou’s major contributions include developing sensor fusion-based algorithms for real-time prediction of transitions to these challenging surfaces, as demonstrated in her 2023 paper, which has already garnered 5 citations. Her 2025 study on kinematics, kinetics, and muscle activations during locomotion over compliant terrains (3 citations) provides foundational biomechanical insights, while the ASTRA-BF algorithm (2025) introduces a human-in-the-loop approach that leverages biomechanical features for seamless surface prediction. Earlier in her career, she contributed to flexible robotic cell programming for biotechnology, showcasing versatility. With a growing citation footprint and a clear trajectory toward clinically impactful solutions, Angelidou is shaping the future of adaptive, intelligent prosthetics that restore natural, confident mobility.
