Dr Ioannis Sarakoglou is a Mechatronics Rerearch Engineer working on Exoskeletons and Wearble robots, body sensing technologies, Teleoperation and actuation mechatronics. He received his degree in Robotics and Electronic Eng. from the University of Salford following this with a Phd. in Robotics at the same University. His research interests include the design and development of upper and lower body exoskeletos, werable and descktop haptic feedback devices, teleoperation systems, force torque sensors, body posture and grasp measurement sensors and hybrid actuators. He is the author of a number of papers in journal and international conferences including ICRA, IROS, WorldHaptics and EuroHaptics. He was awarded the 1st prize in the Immersion & Interactive Design (IID) Competition in Virtual Concept 2005. He was finalist for the Best Entertainment Robots and Systems - 20th Anniversary Award at IROS 2007 and for the best demo award in WorldHaptics 2011. He is a member of the IEEE.
