About

Hamid Rakhodaei is a researcher specializing in medical robotics, with a primary focus on rehabilitation robotics and the design, control, and path planning of hybrid parallel robots. His major contributions center on developing novel robotic systems for ankle and foot rehabilitation, particularly for post-stroke patients. Rakhodaei’s most cited work, “Path planning of the hybrid parallel robot for ankle rehabilitation” (2014, 26 citations), introduces a 9-degree-of-freedom hybrid parallel robot that combines a hexapod and a tripod to simulate complex ankle motions with high precision. He has advanced the field by optimizing robot performance through stiffness-based path planning (2018, 15 citations) and developing singularity-free motion strategies to ensure safe, reliable operation during therapy. His research also includes methodologies for real-time workspace identification and inverse dynamic control, which enhance the robot’s accuracy and adaptability. With a total of seven publications, Rakhodaei’s work bridges mechanical design and clinical application, offering practical tools for therapists. His innovative approach to integrating parallel mechanisms for rehabilitation has laid important groundwork for more effective, automated physical therapy solutions.
