About

John Soldatos is a leading researcher at the intersection of the Internet of Things (IoT), Artificial Intelligence (AI), and Extended Reality (XR), with a focus on secure, human-centric industrial systems. His work is pivotal in shaping Industry 5.0, where he has proposed reference architectures that integrate trustworthy human-AI collaboration within cyber-physical systems. A major contribution is his framework for securing IoT applications, particularly those involving smart objects with semi-autonomous behaviors, as demonstrated in his 2020 work on socially assistive robots (13 citations). More recently, Soldatos has pioneered the fusion of Large Language Models (LLMs) with XR technologies to revolutionize industrial knowledge transfer, using Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) to embed domain expertise into immersive environments (2025, 9 citations). He has also advanced AIOps for big data applications, addressing the management of distributed, containerized infrastructures (2021). With a career spanning foundational IoT security to cutting-edge AI-XR integration, Soldatos’s work is instrumental in building resilient, intelligent, and interactive industrial ecosystems, earning him recognition as a key architect of next-generation digital transformation.
