Gionata Salvietti has been mainly working on multi-contact teleoperation and human-centred robotics. He contributed to the definition of a bilateral teleoperation framework that can deal with multi-contact interaction between dissimilar master and slave kinematics. He is currently working on developing design and methods for haptics interfaces that can be used to control several robotics systems, such as assistive robots, collaborative grippers and applications for VR. He is also interested in evaluating the effect of wearable haptics in term of embodiment of virtual and remote hands.
