About
Luca Giuliano’s research lies at the intersection of robotics, cultural heritage, and human-centered design, with a focus on making museum experiences more accessible and inclusive. His most influential work introduces a cloud robotics telepresence system that enables mobility-impaired individuals to explore archaeological sites and museums remotely—a contribution that has garnered over 27 citations. Giuliano also developed “Virgil,” a robotic platform designed to integrate seamlessly into physical museum visits, enhancing visitor engagement through teleoperation and interactive capabilities. Beyond technical innovation, he explores the ethical dimensions of service robotics, examining how robot morphology and aesthetics influence human acceptance and desirability. His reflections on roboethics, particularly in the context of cultural heritage, bridge design expertise with moral philosophy, advocating for robots that enhance rather than replace human experience. With a cumulative citation count exceeding 80, Giuliano’s work is recognized for its interdisciplinary approach, combining engineering, ethics, and museology. His contributions not only advance assistive robotics but also provoke critical dialogue on the role of robots in society, making him a notable voice in the field of human-robot interaction and accessible cultural heritage.
