About
Eleni Odontidou is a researcher whose work lies at the intersection of human-robot interaction and assistive technologies, with a particular focus on enhancing quality of life for older adults. Her most significant contribution stems from her involvement in the European Union’s ExCITE Project, where she played a key role in advancing mobile robotic telepresence (MRP) systems. Her landmark paper, “ExCITE Project: A Review of Forty-Two Months of Robotic Telepresence Technology Evolution,” has garnered 61 citations, reflecting its influence in the field. In this work, Odontidou and her team documented the iterative development of the Giraff telepresence robot over 42 months, demonstrating its robustness and validity as a tool for connecting elderly individuals with caregivers and loved ones. By bridging technical evolution with real-world deployment, she helped establish MRP systems as viable solutions for aging populations. Her research not only advances robotics but also addresses pressing societal challenges, making her a notable figure in assistive technology. Odontidou’s work continues to inspire innovations in telepresence and human-centered robotics.
