About

Dr. Martine Blouin is a leading researcher in assistive technologies and human–machine interaction, with a primary focus on developing adaptive control systems for individuals with upper-body disabilities. Her major contributions center on the design and validation of multimodal, wireless body-machine interfaces (BoMIs) that leverage wearable sensor networks to translate residual functional capacities into precise commands for assistive devices, such as robotic arms. Her most-cited work (2018, 47 citations) introduces a modular, adaptive BoMI that supports up to six wireless sensor nodes, enabling personalized control for users with varying levels of impairment. A related 2017 paper (13 citations) further establishes her approach to data fusion and system adaptability. Blouin’s research has been instrumental in advancing inclusive, real-world assistive technologies, demonstrating how low-cost, wearable sensors can restore functional independence. Her work is widely recognized for bridging engineering innovation with clinical application, making her a key figure in the field of rehabilitation robotics and accessible human–computer interaction.
