About

Ferry Hadary is a robotics researcher whose work bridges classical control theory and creative engineering applications. His most influential contribution is the development of modeling, simulation, and optimal control strategies for two-wheeled self-balancing robots—a classic inverted pendulum and cart system that serves as a benchmark for multi-input, multi-output control experiments. This work, which has garnered 20 citations, provides a theoretical foundation applicable to numerous real-world systems, from personal transporters to industrial stabilizers. Hadary’s research extends beyond pure control theory into culturally inspired robotics, as demonstrated by his design of a robot that plays Gamelan music using a proportional-derivative control system with an ATmega 16 microcontroller. He has also contributed to autonomous navigation with a flying robot designed for obstacle avoidance in partitioned indoor spaces, and to human-robot interaction through a visualization and control interface for a 4-DOF robotic arm. While his citation counts reflect a growing niche in Indonesian robotics research, Hadary’s work stands out for its integration of rigorous control methods with tangible, culturally relevant applications.
