Hermes Team is the largest student research group in Greece in the field of Biomedical & Healthcare Robotics, and operates under the auspices of the University of Thessaly in Volos. The team focuses on the development of a fully functional robotic exoskeleton system for individuals with Spinal Cord Injury (CSI), aiming to restore mobility, support daily activities, and enhance independence. At the same time, the team is actively involved in cutting-edge fields such as Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCI) and AI-powered robotics, integrating advanced technologies that drive the evolution of its system. A key milestone for the team has been its participation in the international CYBATHLON competition, in the ‘Exoskeleton Race’ discipline, achieving the first-ever Greek participation. With the support of the department of Electrical & Computer Engineering of the University of Thessaly, Hermes Team continues to grow as a multidisciplinary community. pushing forward innovation with real-world impact.
