About

Mohamad Zairi Baharom is a researcher specializing in robotics, assistive technology, and mechanism design, with a focus on developing automated solutions for individuals with physical disabilities. His most-cited work, "Kinematics Analysis of A Robotic Zipper Prototype for Miniaturization" (2016, 8 citations), introduces a novel robotic zipper mechanism designed to autonomously open and close zippers, directly addressing the daily challenges faced by elderly individuals, those with physical disabilities, and people with upper limb reduction deficiencies (ULRD). This contribution highlights his commitment to creating practical, user-centered assistive devices that enhance independence and quality of life. By combining kinematic analysis with miniaturization strategies, Baharom’s research bridges the gap between theoretical mechanics and real-world application, offering a scalable solution for wearable robotics. His work not only advances the field of assistive robotics but also underscores the importance of inclusive design in engineering, making him a notable figure in the development of accessible technologies for vulnerable populations.
