Development of Motion Planning Algorithms for Robots

As part of my research at the Singapore Institute of Neurotechnology (SINAPSE), National University of Singapore, and in collaboration with the Office of Naval Research Singapore, I worked with a team of research scientists on robotic manipulation for everyday tasks.

My work focused on motion planning and control of robotic systems. I developed motion trajectories including zig-zag and spiral motions for tasks such as bread cutting and opening a corkscrew on a wine bottle. I also developed an interface for programmatic control of the individual digits of a robotic hand.
