About
Mauro Serpelloni is a leading researcher in rehabilitation engineering and wearable biomedical systems, with a focus on restoring hand and upper limb function. His work bridges the gap between clinical rehabilitation and at-home therapy, developing sensorized gloves and robotic systems that enable precise tracking of finger motion and hand gestures. His most cited paper, "Sensorized Glove for Measuring Hand Finger Flexion for Rehabilitation Purposes" (2013, 121 citations), laid the foundation for non-invasive, wearable monitoring of patient progress. Serpelloni has pioneered wirelessly powered wearable systems that eliminate cables and batteries, enhancing patient freedom during therapy. He has also integrated electromyographic (EMG) and electroencephalographic (EEG) signals to create hybrid brain-computer interfaces for real-time robotic arm control, targeting amputees and individuals with spinal cord injuries. His work on the Elbow Robotic Rehabilitation System (ERRSE) and series elastic links for affordable torque-controlled robots demonstrates a commitment to accessible, cost-effective rehabilitation technology. With over 200 cumulative citations, Serpelloni’s contributions are shaping the future of robotic-assisted rehabilitation, moving therapy from hospital settings to the home.
