About

Pragati Pal is an emerging researcher in the field of embedded systems and human-robot interaction, with a focus on accessible, low-cost automation technologies. Their most-cited work, "Voice-Controlled Robot using Arduino and Bluetooth" (2023, 4 citations), demonstrates a practical approach to enabling intuitive control of robotic platforms through voice commands. By integrating an Android application built with MIT App Inventor with a Bluetooth module and Arduino microcontroller, Pal's system allows users to command a robot wirelessly using natural speech, eliminating the need for complex programming or hardware interfaces. This contribution is particularly significant for educational robotics and assistive technology, offering a scalable template for voice-controlled automation in classrooms and for individuals with mobility impairments. While early in their career, Pal's work reflects a commitment to democratizing robotics by leveraging widely available components and open-source tools. Their research bridges the gap between theoretical control systems and real-world, user-friendly applications, making robotics more accessible to non-specialists. As voice-controlled interfaces continue to grow in importance, Pal's foundational work provides a valuable reference for students and hobbyists exploring embedded systems and human-machine interaction.
