About

Massimo Magrini is a researcher whose work bridges the worlds of interactive technology, robotics, and healthcare. His key research areas include human-computer interaction, robotic-assisted therapy, and sensor-based systems for rehabilitation and cultural heritage. Magrini’s major contributions lie in developing innovative devices that translate physical gestures into digital commands, as seen in his early work on infrared and camera-based systems for interactive computer music and graphics. More recently, he has focused on neuromotor rehabilitation, notably through the Track-Hold System (THS), a passive robotic aid designed to improve upper limb therapy for stroke patients. His research demonstrates how robotic technologies can be integrated into controlled healthcare environments to deliver advanced, effective rehabilitation methods. With over 20 citations across his most-cited papers, Magrini’s impact is evident in both the arts and medical fields. His work on the THS project, developed in a real healthcare facility, stands out as a practical contribution to robotic-assisted therapy, while his earlier gesture recognition devices have influenced interactive performance systems. Magrini’s interdisciplinary approach continues to inspire students and researchers exploring the intersection of robotics, sensor technology, and human well-being.
