About

Rozita Jailani is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of robotics, artificial intelligence, and pediatric rehabilitation. Her work focuses on developing AI-driven robotic systems to support children with disabilities, including autism spectrum disorder (ASD), attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and speech delays. Jailani’s major contributions include creating a real-time paediatric neurorehabilitation system that uses the autonomous humanoid robot NAO and Microsoft Kinect Motion Sensor, enabling children to perform rehabilitation exercises remotely via the Internet. She also developed a robot-human imitation program for telerehabilitation, allowing therapists to guide children through movement-based therapies from a distance. Her most cited paper, a 2024 scoping review on AI-based robot therapy for children with disabilities, synthesizes emerging evidence on how these technologies can improve social, motor, and cognitive outcomes. Each of her key papers has garnered 4 citations, reflecting growing interest in accessible, technology-enhanced interventions. Jailani’s work is notable for its practical focus on real-world deployment, making rehabilitation more engaging and accessible for children who face barriers to traditional therapy. Her research continues to shape the future of inclusive, AI-powered healthcare.
