About

Jeffri Wahyu Santoso is a robotics researcher whose work focuses on autonomous navigation and mapping for mobile robots in challenging environments. His key research areas include Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM), path planning algorithms, and disaster response robotics. Santoso’s most cited work, "Application SLAM and Path Planning using A-Star Algorithm for Mobile Robot in Indoor Disaster Area" (2018, 24 citations), makes a significant contribution by integrating SLAM with the A* path planning algorithm to enable mobile robots to autonomously map and navigate through indoor disaster zones. This approach allows robots to generate two-dimensional maps of their surroundings while dynamically planning optimal routes, which is critical for search-and-rescue operations where human access is dangerous. By combining real-time mapping with efficient pathfinding, Santoso’s research advances the practical deployment of robots in emergency scenarios, improving their ability to operate in cluttered, unknown indoor spaces. His work demonstrates a clear application of robotics to solve real-world humanitarian challenges, bridging the gap between theoretical algorithms and field-ready systems.
