About
Viorel Mihai is a researcher specializing in haptic robotics, surgical training systems, and industrial automation within the Industry 4.0 framework. His major contributions center on the dynamic control of haptic-robot devices for minimally invasive surgery training, where he developed decoupled linearization models and fuzzy control strategies to improve force tracking and teleoperation performance. His most-cited work (6 citations) presents a novel control model for a 6-DOF parallel haptic device used in closed-loop surgical training, demonstrating how dynamic compensation can enhance system stability and precision. Mihai also advanced visual servoing for flexible assembly lines, integrating robotic arms with modular, PLC-driven stations to support adaptive manufacturing. Additionally, he has contributed to educational technology, designing a flexible robotic platform to support technical education and research, presented at the EDULEARN18 conference in Palma, Spain. His work bridges theoretical control engineering with practical applications in medicine and industry, offering valuable insights for students and researchers in robotics, haptics, and automation.
