About
Sushil Kumar Sahoo is a dynamic robotics and assistive technology researcher whose work sits at the intersection of autonomous systems, healthcare innovation, and human-centered design. His research spans mobile robotics, smart robotic wheelchairs, maritime robotics, and autonomous navigation — areas where he has consistently pushed the boundaries of what intelligent machines can achieve in real-world environments. Sahoo's most impactful contribution lies in advancing smart robotic wheelchair technology, with multiple highly cited publications examining autonomous navigation, obstacle avoidance, sensor integration, and human-robot interaction. His 2023 review on smart robotic wheelchairs (18 citations) and companion work on autonomous navigation (18 citations) have become essential references for researchers developing assistive mobility solutions for people with disabilities. His earlier Fuzzy AHP-based evaluation framework (2021, 17 citations) demonstrates a sophisticated, multi-criteria approach to wheelchair prototype design. Beyond assistive technology, Sahoo has made notable contributions to mobile robot path planning (17 citations) and healthcare robotics (32 citations), with his 2023 paper on mobile robots in healthcare standing as his most-cited work to date. His 2024 exploration of maritime robotics further showcases the impressive breadth of his expertise. Collectively accumulating over 150 citations, Sahoo is establishing himself as a versatile and impactful voice in applied robotics research.
