About

Deny Arifianto is a robotics researcher whose work centers on mobile robot navigation, omnidirectional control, and embedded systems for competitive robotics. His most influential contribution is the development of a holonomic control system for three-wheeled omnidirectional mobile robots using DC motors, published in 2020 with 44 citations. This work directly addresses the challenges of ball-chasing and object interception in the Indonesian Wheeled Football Robot Contest (KRSBI), demonstrating practical, real-time navigation strategies. Arifianto also contributed to object detection in robot soccer by implementing PeleeNet on omnidirectional cameras, a 2020 paper that enhances visual perception for KRSBI competitors. His earlier book, *BIKIN ROBOT ITU GAMPANG* (2011, 18 citations), serves as an accessible guide for novice robot builders, reflecting his commitment to democratizing robotics education. Additionally, his 2019 work on inverse kinematics and PID control for hexapod robots, applied to wall-follower navigation, showcases his versatility across different robot morphologies. With a total of over 70 citations across his key publications, Arifianto’s research has had a tangible impact on Indonesian robotics competitions and educational outreach, making him a notable figure in applied mobile robotics and STEM capacity building.
