About

Mohd Azrel Abu Talib is a researcher in robotics and control systems, with a focus on precision actuation and mechatronic design. His most-cited work, "PID position control for 2-DOF robotic finger" (2013, 7 citations), addresses a fundamental challenge in robotic manipulation: achieving accurate position control for multi-jointed, underactuated mechanisms. In this study, he systematically evaluated motor performance under varying loads, tuned PID controllers, and validated new control parameters on a two-degree-of-freedom (DOF) robotic finger prototype. The finger, constructed from lightweight materials, features two joints and two links, demonstrating how careful PID tuning can enhance trajectory tracking and repeatability in small-scale robotic digits. This contribution is particularly relevant for the development of affordable, dexterous prosthetic hands and industrial grippers. While his citation count reflects a focused, early-career impact, the work stands as a practical guide for engineers seeking to implement robust position control in low-cost robotic systems. Abu Talib’s research bridges the gap between theoretical control algorithms and real-world hardware constraints, offering a replicable methodology for improving the performance of articulated robotic fingers.
