About
Igor Novosselov is a pioneering researcher in micro-robotics and electrohydrodynamic (EHD) propulsion systems, with a focus on developing lightweight, mechanically simple flight mechanisms for centimeter-scale aerial robots. His major contributions center on the design and laser-microfabrication of EHD thrusters that generate lift through corona discharge, eliminating the need for complex flapping-wing mechanisms. This innovation addresses key challenges in insect-scale robotics, such as mechanical failure and energy inefficiency. His most cited work, "A laser-microfabricated electrohydrodynamic thruster for centimeter-scale aerial robots" (2020), has garnered 23 citations, demonstrating its influence in the field. Novosselov’s research has significant implications for applications in environmental monitoring, search-and-rescue, and surveillance, where small, robust aerial platforms are essential. His work stands out for its creative integration of physics and engineering, offering a novel path toward achieving controlled flight in tiny robots.
