About

Arif Dwi Santoso is a robotics researcher whose work focuses on control systems, trajectory planning, and mobile platform design. His key research areas include brushless DC motor control, autonomous mobile robotics, and industrial robot applications such as spray coating. Santoso’s major contributions involve the development of control systems for independent four-wheel drive robotic platforms, as demonstrated in his work on the REV-11 Mobile Robot LIPI version 2, where he designed a microcontroller-based supervisory control module for brushless DC motors. He has also advanced trajectory planning for 6-DOF robots, using open-source tools like Blender to analyze workpiece orientation for spray coating applications, offering cost-effective simulation methods for industrial automation. Although his most-cited papers have modest citation counts—3 and 2 respectively—they represent foundational work in accessible, low-cost robotics control and simulation. Santoso’s research is notable for its practical, hands-on approach, bridging hardware design and software simulation to solve real-world robotic challenges. His work continues to inform engineers and researchers exploring affordable robotics solutions for manufacturing and mobile platforms.
