About
Gonzalo Lorenzo is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of educational technology and special education, with a particular focus on leveraging robotics, artificial intelligence, and immersive virtual reality to support students with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). His work has systematically explored how emerging technologies can foster social interaction, emotional development, and communication skills in autistic learners, establishing him as a leading voice in technology-assisted inclusive education. Lorenzo's most influential contribution — his 2024 study using AI to detect and analyze the duration of autistic students' emotions during interactions with the NAO robot — has already accumulated 24 citations, reflecting the field's urgent demand for objective, data-driven approaches to social skills intervention. His bibliometric analyses and systematic reviews have helped map the evolving landscape of robotic interventions for ASD, providing researchers and educators with essential roadmaps for evidence-based practice. Notably, his investigations into accessible tools like the Bee-Bot robot demonstrate a commitment to practical, classroom-ready solutions. Beyond ASD research, Lorenzo has extended his work to broader accessibility challenges, exploring robotic assistance in academic buildings through simulation modeling. With over 90 cumulative citations across his most prominent works, his scholarship meaningfully shapes how educators and technologists collaborate to create more inclusive, responsive learning environments.
