About
Francesco Crivelli is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of human-robot interaction, haptics, and sleep science. His work centers on developing novel robotic systems to investigate how physical stimuli affect human physiology and behavior, with a particular focus on vestibular stimulation and its impact on sleep. Crivelli’s most notable contribution is the "Somnomat," an actuated bed designed to study the effects of gentle rocking movements on sleep onset and quality—a device that has garnered 17 citations and opened new avenues for non-pharmacological sleep therapies. He also created a reconfigurable, tendon-based haptic interface for virtual reality research, enabling comprehensive studies of human reactions to external stimuli (15 citations). His all-in-one robotic platform for hybrid manufacturing demonstrates versatility beyond biomedical applications. With a career spanning from fundamental haptics to translational sleep research, Crivelli’s work has been cited over 44 times, establishing him as a key figure in understanding how robotic systems can enhance human well-being.
