About

Samson A. Adejokun is an emerging researcher at the intersection of soft robotics, medical microrobotics, and minimally invasive surgical systems. His work spans the design and characterization of flexible, dexterous manipulators capable of operating in highly constrained anatomical environments. Adejokun's early contributions explored granular jamming as an innovative actuation mechanism for snake-like robots, addressing the challenge of maximizing workspace through controlled bending and curvature — a foundational paper that has garnered 8 citations and helped lay groundwork for compliant robotic systems. His more recent research has shifted toward translational medical applications, particularly the development of micro-robotic manipulators for transurethral bladder diagnostics. These systems integrate cable-driven hyper-redundant mechanisms with micro-force sensing capabilities — all within a remarkably compact 3.5mm diameter profile — enabling palpation of bladder interior wall tissue through natural orifices. His 2023 papers on compliant manipulators and microforce-sensor-integrated microrobots reflect a sophisticated command of kinematic modeling, force analysis, and prototype characterization. Collectively accumulating 17 citations across a concise but focused body of work, Adejokun represents a promising voice in the growing field of surgical microrobotics and human-anatomy-aware robotic design.
