About
Anirvan DasGupta’s research lies at the intersection of robotics, dynamics, and control, with a particular focus on humanoid locomotion and space robotics. His most influential work, “Making feasible walking motion of humanoid robots from human motion capture data” (2003, 230 citations), pioneered methods for adapting human motion capture data to drive humanoid robots using the zero moment point (ZMP) criterion—a foundational contribution that has shaped the field of bipedal locomotion. In space robotics, DasGupta has made significant advances in impedance control, developing novel schemes that introduce passive degrees of freedom in the controller domain to achieve stable trajectory and force control for free-flying robots. His work on attitude control using a continuously variable transmission-based torque generation device (2006) and robust trajectory control (2008) further demonstrates his innovative approach to the unique challenges of space environments. With over 390 citations across his key publications, DasGupta’s research has provided essential frameworks for both humanoid walking and space manipulator control, establishing him as a respected figure in robotic systems engineering.
