About

Aqib Noor’s research focuses on the intersection of advanced control theory and robotics, with key contributions in multi-agent systems, non-holonomic mobile robots, and assistive robotic design. His most cited work, "Multi-Agent Tracking of Non-Holonomic Mobile Robots via Non-Singular Terminal Sliding Mode Control" (2019, 14 citations), addresses a critical challenge in formation control: enabling follower robots to track a leader without requiring direct knowledge of the leader’s velocity or position. By reformulating the kinematic model and applying non-singular terminal sliding mode control, Noor’s approach achieves robust, finite-time convergence—a significant advance for autonomous swarm coordination. In parallel, his work on "Robust Feedback Control Design of Underactuated Robotic Hands with Selectively Lockable Switches for Amputees" (2018, 2 citations) tackles low-cost, sensor-free prosthetic design. By integrating selectively lockable switches, the system balances grasping stability with mechanical simplicity, avoiding expensive EMG sensors. While still early in his career, Noor’s research demonstrates a clear trajectory toward practical, robust control solutions for real-world robotic systems—from multi-robot teams to affordable prosthetics—making him a promising voice in the field of nonlinear control and rehabilitation robotics.
