About
Clarisse Nunes is a leading researcher at the intersection of assistive robotics and inclusive education, with a focus on empowering children with motor and speech impairments. Her most-cited work, "Using assistive robots to promote inclusive education" (2016, 52 citations), introduces integrated augmentative manipulation and communication assistive technologies (IAMCATs). These systems allow children to control a robot with a gripper, enabling them to physically manipulate educational items and participate more fully in classroom activities. Nunes’s contributions are pivotal in bridging the gap between physical interaction and communication support, offering practical solutions for inclusive learning environments. Her research demonstrates how robotics can transform special education, providing children with disabilities greater autonomy and engagement. With a growing citation impact, Nunes is recognized for advancing human-robot interaction in educational contexts, and her work continues to inspire new developments in assistive technology design and implementation.
