About
Pasquale Cirillo is a robotics researcher whose work spans tactile sensing, human-robot interaction, sensor fusion, and industrial automation. His research has made significant contributions to the development of artificial skin technologies for robots, advancing both the hardware design and practical applications of distributed tactile sensors. His 2014 paper on optoelectronic-based artificial skin (44 citations) and subsequent work on modular, low-cost skin systems laid important groundwork for enabling robots to sense and respond safely to physical contact with humans. Cirillo's most-cited contribution, an experimental comparison of sensor fusion algorithms for attitude estimation (70 citations), reflects his broader interest in robust sensing across robotic systems. His investigations into force/tactile sensors for slippage control and in-hand manipulation highlight his focus on dexterous robotic grasping. Beyond human-robot interaction, Cirillo has applied his expertise to aeronautics, developing optimized hexapod robot designs and flexible automated drilling architectures for aircraft assembly lines. Together, his portfolio demonstrates a consistent commitment to bridging advanced sensing technology with real-world industrial and collaborative robotics challenges, earning him over 260 cumulative citations across his most recognized works.
