About

Nouri Masmoudi’s research centers on intelligent robotics and autonomous systems, with a particular emphasis on navigation and practical automation. His major contributions include developing a fuzzy logic-based navigation system for mobile robots, which addresses the long-standing challenge of autonomous movement in crowded, unpredictable environments by enabling effective obstacle avoidance. This foundational work, published in 2008, has garnered 4 citations and remains relevant to researchers in mobile robotics. More recently, Masmoudi has focused on renewable energy applications, designing and developing an autonomous Raspberry Pi-based cleaning robot for photovoltaic panels. This 2023 study, with 2 citations, tackles the critical issue of dust accumulation on solar panels, which can significantly reduce energy output. His robot operates on a rail system, making it suitable for highly inclined panels over 30 degrees. By combining embedded systems with practical engineering, Masmoudi’s work bridges theoretical robotics and real-world sustainability challenges, demonstrating a commitment to creating efficient, deployable solutions for clean energy maintenance.
