About

Muhammad Aminur Rahaman is a robotics and human-computer interaction researcher whose work centers on developing assistive technologies for individuals with physical and cognitive disabilities. His research primarily explores sensor-based human-robot interaction systems, with a particular focus on empowering marginalized populations through innovative engineering solutions. Rahaman's most recognized contribution is his development of gesture-controlled robotic systems for people living with paralysis. His 2019 paper on sensor-based hand gesture interfaces for mobility assistance has garnered 14 citations, establishing him as an emerging voice in accessible robotics design. This work introduced glove-based and wheelchair-handle gesture controllers that enable non-verbal or mobility-impaired individuals to navigate their environment with greater independence. Beyond physical disability, Rahaman has extended his research into behavioral therapy technology, developing robot-assisted intervention systems aimed at improving communication and social skills in autistic children — a particularly underserved area of assistive robotics. His 2021 work further refined real-time gesture-controlled wheelchair systems, demonstrating a consistent commitment to iterative, impact-driven design. Collectively, Rahaman's portfolio reflects a dedicated research agenda: bridging robotics engineering and humanitarian need to create practical, life-improving tools for vulnerable communities.
