Antonio Frisoli
Curriculum vitae
In collaboration with the Unit of Neurorehabilitatoin of University of Pisa, Santa Chiara
Hospital, he worked on the development, design, construction and development of new
robotic technologies for neuromotor rehabilitation of the upper limb in patients with poststroke
disabilities and their clinical validation.
“Advanced applications in military technology robotic teleoperation” Ministry of Defence
(2003-2005)
The research project concerned the design and implementation of a teleoperation system
called "body extenders", to amplify the capabilities of a human operator to be used in
tasks of handling loads, assembly room. Antonio Frisoli was involved in the preliminary
design of the control system.
CNR Funded project
CNR Project for Young Researchers Ricercatori EnGrave (2002-2004).
In 2002-2004 Antonio Frisoli was the winner and holder of the research project CNR
Young Researchers Engrave Engrave interactive 3D graphics, with the aim of creating a
system for modeling artifacts in virtual environments. In particular, under this project it
was designed a second version of the desktop haptic interface table, based on a
prototype already made as a result of a previous research project, with parallel
kinematics. Also in the course of the project numerical algorithms were developed to
support interactive deformation of objects with haptic feedack in virtual environments.
University and MIUR project
PRIN project on new actuators (2009-2010)
Antonio Frisoli participated to the design, implementation and construction of new
actuator technologies based on piezoelectric and electroactive materials.
PRIN AIDA Project (2007-2008)
Antonio Frisoli as part of research unit SSSA, developed innovative haptic systems and
applications for physical interaction with virtual objects in real time using gloves with
sensors in virtual environments.
MIUR Project RIME (2002-2004).
Since 2002 until 2004 Antonio Frisoli worked on the project RIME (2001-2003) "Design
and realization of haptic interface with 5 degrees of freedom for teleoperation in surgery"
It was carried out the design and study static-kinematic performance of an haptic
Interface with 5 degrees of freedom to be used for teleoperation in orthopedic surgery of
the spinal cor. As part of the continuation of the same project it was implemented a
master-slave teleoperation system for performing drilling operations in orthopedic
surgery.
