About
Dr. Jorge Barrio is a leading researcher in teleoperation and remote handling systems, with a particular focus on enhancing the performance and safety of human-robot interaction over long distances. His most influential work introduces the Bidirectional Transport Protocol (BTP), a novel Internet transport protocol designed for teleoperated robots. This protocol, detailed in his most-cited paper (59 citations), provides a robust congestion control technique that ensures reliable, low-latency communication—a critical requirement for tasks like remote surgery or hazardous environment manipulation. Dr. Barrio has also made significant contributions to haptic feedback control, developing a rate-position controller that allows operators to manipulate slave robots across large workspaces while receiving intuitive haptic cues. His applied research extends to nuclear fusion, where he has advanced remote handling technologies for future fusion power plants, as demonstrated in his work with the TechnoFusión laboratory. Additionally, Dr. Barrio is dedicated to education, having designed an experimental platform at Universidad Politécnica de Madrid that enables students to implement and test bilateral control algorithms, bridging the gap between theoretical learning and practical teleoperation challenges.
