About
Raquel Perim Pereira is a researcher at the intersection of robotics, control systems, and assistive technology, with a primary focus on developing socially assistive robots for children with autism spectrum disorder. Her most notable work, "Repetitive Control Applied to a Social Robot for Interaction with Autistic Children," introduces a novel control framework that enables robots to perform repetitive, predictable movements—a key requirement for engaging children with autism, who often respond better to consistent and structured interactions. This contribution bridges the gap between advanced control theory and real-world therapeutic applications, demonstrating how precise robotic behavior can foster social engagement and communication in clinical settings. While her citation count is still building, reflecting the emerging nature of this interdisciplinary field, her work has been recognized for its potential to transform autism therapy through human-robot interaction. Pereira’s research exemplifies how engineering solutions can be tailored to meet specific human needs, paving the way for more adaptive and responsive social robots in healthcare and education.
