About
Diogo Farinha is a researcher whose work bridges the gap between digital transformation and assistive technology, focusing on Robotic Process Automation (RPA) and biomedical engineering. His most cited paper, "A framework to support Robotic process automation" (2023, 41 citations), provides a structured methodology for identifying and selecting optimal processes for RPA implementation, helping organizations maximize efficiency in their digitalization efforts. This contribution is particularly valuable for businesses seeking to leverage automation for competitive advantage. In parallel, Farinha explores assistive robotics through his work on the Assistive Robotic Hand Orthosis (ARHO) controlled with EMG (2019, 9 and 4 citations). This prototype aims to restore hand function for individuals with impairments, enabling basic activities of daily living like grasping objects. By combining electromyographic control with motorized orthoses, Farinha addresses a critical need in rehabilitation technology, where few practical solutions currently exist. His dual focus on optimizing business processes and enhancing human capabilities through robotics demonstrates a versatile approach to solving real-world challenges.
