Dr. Harshal is making a presentation

The Assistive Technology Industry Association (ATIA) Conference 2025 was held on January 30 – February 1st at the Orlando World Center Marriott in Orlando, FL.
Drs. Harshal Mahajan and Samuel Olatunji presented a one-hour education session titled “User-Centered Robot Control to Support Older Adults with Motor Impairments”. This presentation focused on the design and feasibility evaluation of a hands-free control mechanism. This device enables older adults with motor impairments to operate an assistive robot.
This project is part of the pilot grants funded by CREATE, in collaboration with the Center on Health, Aging, & Disability at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign.
