About

Bernadus Kristyanto’s research focuses on the intersection of robotics, human motion analysis, and rehabilitation engineering. His work is driven by a fundamental question: how can we systematically study human movement to design better robotic systems and therapeutic interventions? Kristyanto’s most cited paper, “Analysis of human arm motions at assembly work as a basic of designing dual robot arm system” (2017, 4 citations), lays the groundwork for a novel shoulder-attached dual-arm robot. By applying DH-parameter-based forward kinematics to model human arm motions, he provides a foundational framework for creating robots that can safely and effectively mimic human dexterity in industrial settings. Expanding this motion analysis into healthcare, his 2018 paper “Therbligh Motions as a Basic of Movement Therapy for Stroke Patients” (2 citations) introduces a pioneering concept: using Therblig motion elements—traditionally used in time-and-motion studies—as a structured basis for designing movement therapy protocols. This innovative approach bridges industrial engineering and neurorehabilitation, offering a systematic method to analyze and retrain motor skills in stroke survivors. Though early in his career, Kristyanto’s work demonstrates a clear trajectory toward human-centered robotics and evidence-based rehabilitation, promising significant contributions to both fields.
