About
Nacim Ramdani is a leading researcher in robotics, with a focus on safe motion planning, humanoid robots, and assistive technologies for healthcare. His work spans dynamic identification, robust control, and the integration of robotic fleets in medical and commercial settings. He has made significant contributions to set-membership identification and interval analysis for parallel robots, as well as guaranteed constraint computation for safe path planning. His highly cited paper on nursing and assistive robotics (114 citations) highlights the opportunities and challenges of robotics in aging populations and healthcare. Ramdani also led the ENDORSE project, developing safe, efficient indoor robotic fleets for hospital logistics. His research on fast replanning of safe motions for humanoid robots, including applications to soccer kicking motions, has advanced real-time safety and balance in humanoid locomotion. With over 300 citations across his top papers, Ramdani’s work bridges theoretical rigor and practical deployment, making him a key figure in the future of safe, autonomous robotics for human environments.
