Robotics in Clinical Trials Validating RIA’s Real-World Impact

Collaborate with us to conduct research at the forefront of human robot interaction.
Investigate RIA's Impact
Join us in the pursuit of clinical evidence for compassionate robotics.
Machani Robotics partners with researchers to explore where and how humanoid robots can support better human outcomes in a wide variety of areas - from Senior Care and Education, to Intellectual Development Disorders, and broader healthcare.

RIA is designed to complement—not replace—human caregivers. Our goal in every trial is to generate robust insights on how robotic assistance can:
  • Expand access to care
  • Improve outcomes in under-resourced environments
  • Reduce caregiver burden without reducing human connection
Areas of Investigation
If you’re planning a study or considering RIA for a trial, we’d love to collaborate. Some of the areas we are actively pursuing include:
  • Dementia Care
    RIA as a supportive agent in dementia care, rehabilitation, and emotional wellbeing
  • Patient Monitoring
    Humanoid robotics in multi-patient monitoring and support
  • Empathetic AI
    Use of AI-driven robots to deliver standardised, empathetic interactions
  • HRI in Healthcare
    Human-robot interaction (HRI) for complex healthcare environments
