Research Interests

  • Robotic Manipulation
  • Force and Impedance Control
  • Robot-Assisted Medical Systems
  • Haptic and Contact-Rich Robotics
  • Simulation for Robotics (MuJoCo, multi-physics modeling)
  • Learning from Demonstration and Teleoperation
  • Autonomous and Intelligent Robotic Systems

I am particularly interested in robotics problems where precise physical interaction with the environment is essential, such as medical robotics, robotic palpation, and contact-sensitive manipulation.

Current Work

Ongoing projects focused on robot hand teleoperation, high-fidelity simulation, and contact-aware manipulation.

Robot Hand Teleoperation

Development of a teleoperation system that lets a human operator control a multi-fingered robotic hand in real time, mapping the operator's hand motion to the robot's fingers to perform dexterous manipulation tasks.

Robotic Simulation and Multi-Physics Modeling

Development of simulation pipelines using MuJoCo to model robotic grasping and probe interactions. This includes generating nodal displacement data for downstream physical modeling tools and integrating multi-physics frameworks such as preCICE.

Contact-Aware Robotic Systems

Exploring methods for controlling robotic manipulators during contact-rich tasks, including impedance-based control strategies and force feedback integration.

Side Projects
