About

Yas Oloumi Yazdi is an innovative researcher working at the intersection of haptics, mixed reality, and medical imaging technologies, with a particular focus on transforming how ultrasound diagnostics can be delivered remotely. Their most significant contribution is the pioneering concept of "human teleoperation" for teleultrasound — a groundbreaking approach that elegantly bridges the gap between traditional audiovisual guidance and fully robotic teleoperation systems. By incorporating haptic feedback into a mixed reality framework, Yazdi's work addresses critical tradeoffs in existing teleultrasound methods, balancing precision and flexibility while managing latency and cost concerns that have long challenged the field. Their research has garnered 27 citations across multiple publications, reflecting growing interest from the medical technology and human-computer interaction communities. The work is particularly timely given increasing demand for remote healthcare solutions, offering a system that could meaningfully expand access to expert ultrasound diagnostics in underserved or geographically isolated settings. Through iterative publication and refinement of this concept between 2021 and 2023, Yazdi has demonstrated a sustained commitment to advancing practical, human-centered telemedicine technologies with real-world clinical applicability.
