About
Nofria Hanafi is a robotics researcher whose work focuses on developing autonomous systems for hazardous and labor-intensive tasks. Her key research areas include agricultural robotics, autonomous navigation, and human-robot interaction for safety-critical applications. Hanafi's most significant contribution is the development of a coconut tree plucking robot using particle swarm optimization, addressing the high risks of manual coconut harvesting—including bone abnormalities and fatal falls from trees. This work, cited 10 times, demonstrates her commitment to creating practical solutions that replace dangerous manual labor with intelligent automation. She has also advanced autonomous navigation through her work on ROISC-v1.0, a robotic disinfectant that uses behavior-based control for wall following and obstacle avoidance, enabling UV sterilization in hazardous environments. This innovation, cited 3 times, showcases her ability to integrate control systems for real-world deployment during health crises. Hanafi's research bridges the gap between theoretical robotics and tangible applications that improve workplace safety, making her work particularly relevant for students and researchers interested in agricultural automation, mobile robotics, and human-centered engineering design.
