About

David Selvakumar is a robotics researcher whose work focuses on intuitive human-machine interaction and the design of accessible robotic systems. His key research areas include gesture-controlled robotics, embedded systems, and the development of low-cost, user-friendly automation solutions. Selvakumar’s most notable contribution is his pioneering work on the “Design and Fabrication of 6-axis Gesture Controlled Robot” (2019), which has garnered 6 citations. In this study, he engineered a six-degree-of-freedom robot that can be intuitively controlled via a human hand glove integrated with flex sensors and a transceiver, eliminating the need for complex control interfaces. This innovation demonstrates his commitment to making robotics more accessible to non-specialists, reducing the learning curve for operators. By focusing on practical, real-world applications, Selvakumar’s research bridges the gap between advanced robotic capabilities and everyday usability. His work is particularly relevant for students and researchers interested in human-robot interaction, mechatronics, and assistive technologies, offering a tangible example of how gesture-based control can democratize access to sophisticated robotic tools.
