About

Debashish Datta Ray is a robotics researcher whose work centers on remote handling systems, telerobotics, and human-robot interaction, with a particular focus on applications in hazardous and nuclear environments. Based at Bhabha Atomic Research Centre (BARC) in Mumbai, Ray has made meaningful contributions to the development of specialized robotic systems designed to enhance both safety and productivity in high-risk settings. His most notable work involves the development of a force-reflecting tele-robot for nuclear installations, a project that addresses the critical need for reliable remote handling technology where human presence is dangerous — a paper that has garnered 8 citations and remains a cornerstone of his portfolio. Ray has also advanced the field of intuitive robotic control, demonstrating how data glove technology can be used to operate multi-fingered grippers for handling irregularly shaped objects across industrial settings. His research into compliance control further broadens the practical capabilities of tele-robotic systems in contact-rich tasks. More recently, his development of a mobile robot for remote radiation measurement reflects an ongoing commitment to real-world nuclear safety challenges. Collectively, his work represents a focused and impactful effort to bring intelligent robotics into some of engineering's most demanding environments.
