About

Ruhizan Liza Ahmad Shauri is a robotics researcher whose work centers on robotic manipulation, dexterous robotic hands, and autonomous inspection systems. With a career dedicated to advancing human-like robotic capabilities, she has made significant contributions to the design, control, and sensory integration of multi-fingered robotic hands and dual-arm manipulator systems. Her most-cited work, "Assembly manipulation of small objects by dual-arm manipulator" (2011, 35 citations), introduced a vision-guided robotic assembly system that mimics human dexterity while minimizing hardware complexity — a meaningful step toward practical industrial automation. Building on this foundation, she has systematically developed a seven-degree-of-freedom three-fingered robotic hand, advancing its capabilities through PID position control, impedance control, force sensor calibration, and multi-style grasping strategies across a series of influential publications. Her 2014 overview of automated underground pipeline mapping (13 citations) demonstrates a broader commitment to autonomous robotic platforms in real-world inspection environments. Through iterative, application-driven research, Shauri has established herself as a dedicated contributor to intelligent robotics, with her cumulative work garnering over 100 citations and offering valuable foundations for students and engineers pursuing advances in robotic manipulation and automation.
