About
Afan Galih Salman is a robotics researcher whose work centers on making swarm robotics more accessible and practical through the integration of consumer mobile technology. His primary research areas include swarm robot coordination, affordable robotic platforms, and the use of smartphones as embedded controllers. Salman’s major contribution is the development of a low-cost, powerful swarm mobile robot system that leverages Android smartphones and IOIO boards, effectively transforming everyday devices into capable autonomous agents. This approach significantly lowers the barrier to entry for swarm robotics research, enabling broader experimentation and education in multi-robot systems. His most-cited paper, “Development of Affordable and Powerful Swarm Mobile Robot Based on Smartphone Android and IOIO board” (2017), has garnered 7 citations, reflecting its foundational role in accessible robotics. By demonstrating that complex coordination tasks can be achieved with off-the-shelf hardware, Salman has helped democratize swarm robotics, inspiring new researchers and hobbyists to explore autonomous collective behavior without prohibitive costs.
