About
Dr. Ines Sorrentino is a leading researcher in humanoid robotics and telepresence, with a primary focus on enabling fully immersive human-robot embodiment. Her most influential work, the iCub3 avatar system (2024, 60 citations), introduces a groundbreaking framework that allows human operators to remotely control humanoid robots with unprecedented sensory feedback and dexterity. This system, validated on the iCub3 humanoid developed at the Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia, bridges the gap between operator and machine by integrating real-time visual, auditory, and haptic feedback, effectively making the robot an extension of the human body. Sorrentino’s contributions are pivotal for applications in hazardous environments, remote healthcare, and assistive robotics, where intuitive control is critical. Her work has rapidly gained recognition, demonstrating high impact within the robotics community. By advancing the concept of avatar systems, she is shaping the future of teleoperation and embodied AI, making her a key figure in the next generation of human-robot interaction.
