About
Leone Costi is an emerging researcher at the forefront of medical robotics, human-robot interaction, and electronic skin (e-skin) technology. His work addresses some of the most pressing challenges in telerobotics and remote healthcare, with a particular focus on enabling safe, effective remote medical examination and palpation. Costi has made significant contributions to the development of tactile sensing systems, including multimaterial robotic e-skins that combine electronic and ionic conductivity using electrical impedance tomography — a paper that has already garnered 16 citations since 2023. His most-cited work (21 citations) explores face-mediated visual feedback for human-robot interaction in safety-critical clinical settings, demonstrating a thoughtful approach to bridging technology and patient care. Across his portfolio, Costi consistently tackles the challenge of communication delay in teleoperation, shared control frameworks, and the design of intuitive soft interfaces for remote palpation. His research on topological sensor design, tactile filters, and variable-stiffness robotic fingers further reflects the breadth of his technical expertise. With accumulating citations across multiple venues and growing contributions to healthcare robotics, Costi represents a compelling voice in the next generation of robotics researchers.
