About
Dr. Serpil Karakas is a leading researcher in assistive robotics and brain-computer interfaces (BCIs), with a focus on restoring autonomy for individuals with motor impairments. Her work centers on developing shared control systems that integrate depth-sensor technology to enhance mobility and object manipulation for users with both upper- and lower-limb disabilities. A key contribution is her 2025 study on depth-sensor-based shared control assistance for BCI-controlled assistive robotic devices, which demonstrates how power wheelchairs and robotic manipulators can be combined to compensate for limb impairments, enabling long-term home use. This work has already garnered 8 citations, reflecting its immediate impact on the field. Dr. Karakas’s research bridges the gap between advanced robotics and practical, user-centered design, aiming to provide greater independence for individuals with severe motor limitations. Her achievements highlight her commitment to translating cutting-edge BCI technology into real-world assistive solutions, making her a notable figure in rehabilitation engineering and human-robot interaction.
