About
Silvia Pabon’s research lies at the intersection of haptics, virtual reality, and human–machine interaction, with a focus on enhancing sensorimotor skills through wearable robotics. Her most cited work, “Light-Exoskeleton and Data-Glove integration for enhancing virtual reality applications” (2009, 3 citations), introduces a pioneering integration of the PERCRO Light-Exoskeleton and Data-Glove to improve human grasping and manipulation within virtual environments. This contribution addresses the critical challenge of mastering fine motor skills—such as picking up, lifting, and manipulating objects—by combining force feedback with precise hand tracking. Pabon’s approach advances the realism and utility of VR-based training and rehabilitation systems, offering a foundation for subsequent work in assistive robotics and skill acquisition. Though her citation count is modest, her early integration of exoskeletal and data-glove technologies demonstrates foresight in wearable haptic interfaces, influencing later developments in immersive simulation and motor learning. Her work underscores the importance of seamless, intuitive interaction in virtual spaces, making her a notable contributor to the evolution of haptic feedback systems for both research and applied contexts.
