About

Giulia Ticchiarelli is a researcher at the forefront of human-robot interaction and teleoperation, with a focus on enhancing the intuitiveness and stability of remote robotic control. Her key research areas include tele-impedance control, wearable sensor integration, and the replication of human limb dynamics in robotic avatars. Her most notable contribution, the "Tele-Impedance Control Approach Using Wearable Sensors" (2022, 9 citations), introduces a real-time control law that faithfully reproduces both the impedance and kinematic behavior of a human subject’s arm—specifically the shoulder and elbow—onto a remote 2-DoF avatar. This work directly addresses critical challenges in teleoperation, such as instability and limited reliability during unpredictable interactions, by enabling the avatar to mirror the human operator’s natural stiffness and motion. By bridging the gap between human intent and robotic execution, Ticchiarelli’s research paves the way for more resilient and responsive teleoperated systems in applications ranging from hazardous environment exploration to assistive robotics. Her work represents a significant step toward seamless, human-like remote manipulation, promising to improve safety and performance in high-stakes operational tasks.
