About

Moses Gladson Selvamuthu is a rising researcher in soft robotics and bio-inspired mechanisms, with a focus on developing novel robotic systems for locomotion, inspection, and high-precision manipulation. His work spans the design, modeling, and control of soft robots that leverage advanced materials and embedded sensors. In his most-cited paper (17 citations), he introduced a soft inchworm robot that achieves active friction control using double-network hydrogel, enabling efficient crawling locomotion—a significant contribution to soft robotics mobility. He also developed the Metal ABENICS, a high-strength active ball joint mechanism with embedded IMU sensors for orientation correction, pushing the boundaries of spherical gear design. Additionally, his soft pipe inspection robot, featuring vibrating cilia capable of underwater transport, addresses critical challenges in pipeline maintenance with reduced human risk and cost. Selvamuthu’s work is notable for integrating material science, mechanical design, and sensor feedback to create adaptive, robust robotic systems. With growing citations and a portfolio of innovative prototypes, he is establishing himself as a promising contributor to the next generation of soft and bio-inspired robotics.
