About

Roghaye Barmaki is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of virtual reality, robotics, and rehabilitation engineering, with a focused mission to transform physical therapy through technology. Her work centers on developing immersive, interactive systems that address critical challenges in patient adherence and motivation during upper extremity rehabilitation. Barmaki’s key contributions include the design of a combined VR and robotic platform for stroke rehabilitation, which uses real-time feedback to engage patients and improve outcomes. She has also advanced wearable sensor technology by characterizing carbon nanocomposite-based sensors on elbow joints, enabling precise motion tracking during therapy. Furthermore, Barmaki employs machine learning to predict upper limb motion intentions from multimodal data, allowing for adaptive, personalized rehabilitation protocols. Although her most-cited papers are recent (2023–2024), they have already garnered citations, reflecting growing interest in her innovative approach. By integrating robotics, VR, and AI, Barmaki is laying the groundwork for more effective, accessible, and motivating physical therapy solutions, with the potential to significantly impact patient recovery and quality of life.
