About
Dr. Surya Narayan Panda is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of robotics, artificial intelligence, and assistive technology. His primary research areas include robotic manipulator trajectory planning, deep learning applications in robotics, and human-robot interaction for social communication disorders. Dr. Panda’s major contributions include developing an efficient robotic manipulator trajectory planning method using a modified Firefly algorithm, which optimizes movement paths for industrial and service robots. More recently, he has advanced the field of socially assistive robotics by creating a deep learning-enabled robotic system that identifies audio-based emotional pragmatics deficits in individuals with social communication disorders—a novel integration of AI and robotics for therapeutic applications. While his citation counts are still growing (3 and 1 citations respectively), his work represents an important step toward using intelligent robots for mental health and developmental support. Dr. Panda’s research bridges engineering and clinical applications, demonstrating how robotics can be harnessed for both industrial efficiency and human well-being.
