About

Selvaraj Veerapandian is a leading researcher in soft robotics and flexible sensor systems, with a particular focus on developing highly precise, deformable sensing technologies for wearable and robotic applications. His major contributions center on innovative fabrication techniques that overcome the limitations of traditional strain-based sensing, which is often compromised by the viscoelastic properties of soft materials. In his highly cited 2020 work, "Folding and Bending Planar Coils for Highly Precise Soft Angle Sensing" (55 citations), Veerapandian introduced a novel method using folded planar coils to measure angles created by deformable structures. This approach decouples sensing accuracy from material location and substrate behavior, enabling more reliable and repeatable performance in soft robotics and wearable systems. His work has been instrumental in advancing the precision and robustness of soft angle sensors, directly impacting the design of more responsive and adaptive robotic interfaces. With a growing citation record and a clear trajectory of innovation, Veerapandian is recognized as a key contributor to the next generation of soft, flexible, and highly accurate sensing technologies.
