About
Omar Ali Syadiqeen Malik is a researcher at the intersection of human-robot interaction and gerontechnology, focusing on how emerging robotic systems can support an aging global population. His most cited work, "Understanding the Interaction between Older Adults and Soft Service Robots: Insights from Robotics and the Technology Acceptance Model" (2020, 23 citations), provides a foundational framework for evaluating the adoption of soft, flexible robots in elderly care. By integrating robotics design principles with the Technology Acceptance Model, Malik offers critical insights into how older adults perceive and accept assistive robots—addressing both technical functionality and psychological readiness. This work stands out for its practical relevance, bridging engineering design with social science to guide the development of robots that are not only capable but also welcomed by their users. Malik’s research contributes to a growing body of literature aimed at making caregiving more sustainable through technology, and his findings are increasingly cited by scholars in robotics, human factors, and aging studies. His approach reflects a deep commitment to user-centered innovation, ensuring that technological progress serves the dignity and independence of older adults.
