About

Lloyd Christian P. Jarque is a researcher at the forefront of robotics and human-computer interaction, with a particular focus on enhancing safety and precision in hazardous environments. His most cited work, "Controlling the Bomb Disposal Robot using Microsoft Kinect Sensor" (2021), has garnered 9 citations and represents a significant contribution to teleoperation systems. In this study, Jarque pioneered the integration of the Microsoft Kinect sensor as an alternative control interface for bomb disposal robots, developing a novel design that leverages gesture-based intelligence. His research provides a critical comparative analysis of control efficiency, measuring speed and response time between traditional joystick controllers and the Kinect-based system. By demonstrating that intuitive, non-contact control can match or surpass conventional methods, Jarque’s work opens new pathways for safer remote operations in explosive ordnance disposal. This achievement not only highlights his expertise in robotics engineering and sensor integration but also underscores his commitment to practical, life-saving applications. As a rising voice in assistive and defense robotics, Jarque continues to explore how accessible sensor technologies can transform human-robot collaboration in high-stakes scenarios.
