About

Dr. Debabrata Das is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of the Internet of Things (IoT), assistive robotics, and intelligent rehabilitation systems. His work is defined by a commitment to leveraging connected technologies to transform patient care and industrial automation. Dr. Das’s most significant contributions lie in developing IoT-enabled rehabilitation platforms that bring clinical-grade therapy into the home. His highly cited paper, “XoRehab: IoT Enabled Wheelchair based Lower Limb Rehabilitation System,” introduces a system that allows patients to perform essential lower limb exercises under remote professional supervision, reducing the need for frequent hospital visits. Expanding on this concept, his work on a “Surface EMG-augmented 9-DoF System” integrates real-time muscle signal feedback to create a sophisticated, adaptive therapy environment for both upper and lower limbs. These contributions, each garnering 4 citations in a short time, demonstrate a clear and growing impact. Beyond healthcare, Dr. Das has advanced the field of smart manufacturing by applying digital twin technology to enhance network QoS in factory environments. His research on robotic extensions to IoT testbeds further underscores his vision of a world where intelligent, autonomous agents—from rehabilitation robots to factory floor sensors—work seamlessly to improve human life and industrial efficiency.
