About
Marco Freddolini’s research lies at the intersection of human-computer interaction, virtual embodiment, and biofeedback, with a particular focus on how technology can reshape our sense of bodily self. His most cited work, “Exploring the Embodiment of a Virtual Hand in a Spatially Augmented Respiratory Biofeedback Setting” (2021, 16 citations), pioneers a novel approach to enhancing the feeling of owning a virtual limb—a critical factor for improving prosthetic acceptance and intuitive human-machine interaction. Rather than relying on traditional visuo-tactile methods, Freddolini integrates respiratory biofeedback with spatial augmentation, demonstrating that breathing patterns can serve as a powerful, non-invasive cue for embodiment. This contribution opens new pathways for rehabilitation and assistive technologies, where a user’s physiological signals actively shape their virtual or robotic extensions. By bridging embodied cognition with practical biofeedback systems, Freddolini’s work is not only advancing fundamental understanding of body ownership but also laying groundwork for more adaptive, user-centered prosthetics and immersive interfaces. His research is a compelling example of how interdisciplinary thinking can transform both theory and applied design in human augmentation.
