About
Anupam Saxena is a leading researcher in the fields of robotic exoskeletons, multi-agent robotic systems, and bio-inspired robotics. His work focuses on the optimal design, control, and redundancy resolution of robotic systems for rehabilitation and manipulation. In his most cited work, Saxena developed a novel seven-degree-of-freedom robotic two-fingered hand exoskeleton designed to accurately track human digit motion for rehabilitation, addressing the challenge that human finger joints cannot be modeled by simple revolute joints. His foundational 2010 paper on optimal design and control of a hand exoskeleton has garnered 18 citations, while his research on biped robot locomotion—including trajectory generation using genetic algorithms and energy-efficient walking with torsion springs—has been cited extensively. Saxena has also made significant contributions to multi-agent robotics, pioneering methods for form-closure capture of objects using genetic algorithms and projective path planning. His work on manipulability analysis of human fingers during cooperative object rotation has applications in prosthetics and robotics. With over 100 citations across his top publications, Saxena’s interdisciplinary research bridges mechanical design, control theory, and biomechanics, advancing both rehabilitation technology and autonomous robotic systems.
