About

Dr. Nurul Hawani Idris is a researcher at the forefront of intelligent automation and robotic systems, with a particular focus on integrating Internet of Things (IoT) technologies to enhance industrial and environmental applications. Her most cited work, "Robotic Arm Control using Internet of Things (IoT)" (2019, 5 citations), addresses a critical challenge in modern manufacturing: overcoming human inefficiency in repetitive tasks like pick-and-place operations. By developing reprogrammable, multifunctional manipulators controlled via IoT, Dr. Idris contributes to the evolution of smart factories where robotic arms can be remotely monitored and operated, increasing productivity and safety. Her earlier influential study, "Mobile Inspection Robot for Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) Ducting Systems" (2015, 3 citations), tackles the often-overlooked issue of indoor air quality. Recognizing that contaminated ventilation ducts can spread biological and non-biological pollutants, she designed a mobile robot capable of navigating and inspecting complex HVAC systems, enabling proactive maintenance. This work highlights her commitment to applying robotics for public health and infrastructure resilience. Dr. Idris’s research bridges the gap between theoretical control systems and practical, deployable solutions, making her a notable contributor to the fields of IoT-enabled robotics and environmental monitoring.
