About

Carlos Henrique Araujo de Aguiar is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of robotics, architecture, and human-computer interaction, with a focused commitment to enhancing quality of life through technology. His primary research areas include assistive robotics, smart environments, and socially interactive architectural systems. Aguiar’s major contribution is the development of the “home+” concept, a distributed, networked suite of robotic furniture designed to support aging in place. His seminal 2016 paper, which has garnered 13 citations, details the design and construction of this interoperable system, demonstrating how robotic furniture can transform a home into a proactive, assistive environment. This work lays the foundation for a new paradigm in ambient assisted living. More recently, Aguiar has explored the potential of socially interactive architectural robotics to promote restorative environments, as seen in his 2023 publication. By merging architectural design with robotic agency, he is pioneering spaces that not only respond to physical needs but also contribute to psychological well-being. Aguiar’s research is notable for its human-centered approach, directly addressing the challenges of an aging population through innovative, tangible technology.
