About
P. A. Diluka Harischandra is a pioneering roboticist whose research bridges micro-robotic manipulation, rehabilitation robotics, and intelligent control systems. His most impactful work, "Ferrofluidic Manipulator: Automatic Manipulation of Nonmagnetic Microparticles at the Air–Ferrofluid Interface" (2021, 19 citations), introduces a novel magnetic system for precisely controlling non-magnetic microparticles—a fundamental challenge in micro- and nanorobotics. This innovation enables automated manipulation at fluid interfaces, with applications in lab-on-a-chip and biomedical engineering. In rehabilitation robotics, Harischandra developed an "Intelligent bimanual rehabilitation robot with fuzzy logic based adaptive assistance" (2019, 12 citations), which uses fuzzy logic to tailor therapy for post-stroke patients, improving inter-limb coordination. His "Robotic Threading from a Gel-like Substance Based on Impedance Control With Force Tracking" (2021, 6 citations) addresses the complex manipulation of gel-like materials for soft robotics and drug delivery. Additional contributions include sensor fusion for autonomous robot localization using Extended Kalman Filters and a tele-rehabilitation system with force-sensorless gravity compensation. With over 47 total citations, Harischandra’s work is advancing both micro-manipulation and assistive robotics, offering practical solutions for healthcare and manufacturing.
