About

Dr. Elham Chamanehpour is at the forefront of next-generation energy harvesting and self-powered systems, with a primary focus on triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) and their transformative applications in robotics. Her most impactful work, the 2023 paper "Revolutionizing self-powered robotic systems with triboelectric nanogenerators," has already garnered over 106 citations, highlighting its significance in the field. In this seminal contribution, Dr. Chamanehpour demonstrates how TENGs can enable robotic systems to achieve self-powered actuation, grasping, and sensing—eliminating the need for external power sources and paving the way for more autonomous, sustainable, and efficient machines. Her research bridges fundamental materials science with practical engineering, offering a paradigm shift in how robots interact with their environment. By converting ambient mechanical energy directly into electrical signals, her work not only advances soft robotics and wearable technology but also addresses critical challenges in energy sustainability. Dr. Chamanehpour’s innovative approach positions her as a leading voice in the integration of nanogenerators into intelligent systems, inspiring new avenues for research in autonomous devices and human-machine interfaces.
