About

Sumaya Ishrat Moyeen is a leading researcher in autonomous systems and soft robotics, whose work bridges the gap between intelligent machine perception and resilient material design. Her highly cited 2021 review, “Critical Design and Control Issues of Indoor Autonomous Mobile Robots” (145 citations), established a foundational framework for robots that navigate complex indoor environments by sensing and making real-time decisions, directly impacting the deployment of service and industrial robots. More recently, Moyeen has pioneered the integration of self-healing materials into robotics. Her 2023 review on self-healing soft robotics (15 citations) outlines how next-generation robots can autonomously repair damage, ensuring safer human-robot interactions and longer operational lifespans. By synthesizing control theory with material science, she addresses critical challenges in both mobility and durability. Her work is shaping the future of adaptive, resilient robots for homes, hospitals, and hazardous environments, making her a key voice in the evolution of intelligent, lifelike machines.
