About
Chiara Zarna is a leading voice in the technological transformation of the food sector, with a primary focus on the intersection of robotics, artificial intelligence, and the meat processing industry. Her most cited work, "Meat Industry 5.0 – a review of technological approaches and robotic systems in the meat processing industry" (2025), is a seminal review that maps the shift from manual labor to advanced automation. Zarna’s major contribution lies in synthesizing how core Industry 5.0 elements—AI, robotics, and human-robot collaboration—are being deployed to address long-standing challenges in meat processing, such as safety, efficiency, and labor shortages. By critically analyzing current robotic systems and technological approaches, she provides a clear roadmap for the sector’s future. Though her work is recent, its 2 citations in a short span signal its immediate relevance and impact on both academic research and industrial practice. Zarna’s research is essential reading for anyone interested in the future of food production, offering a compelling vision of how smart automation can revolutionize a traditionally labor-intensive industry.
