About

Ferdian Ronilaya is a robotics researcher whose work bridges low-cost hardware innovation and immersive teleoperation systems. His key research areas include collaborative robotics, sensor design, and human-robot interaction. Ronilaya’s major contribution is the development of a low-cost, 3D-printed robot joint torque sensor, which enables advanced robotic arms to work safely alongside humans by precisely measuring external forces and allowing trajectory control. This work, cited 10 times, demonstrates his commitment to making sophisticated robotics accessible through additive manufacturing. In a second highly cited study (8 citations), Ronilaya addressed a critical limitation in teleoperation—restricted field of view—by integrating a 360-degree camera with a VR headset. This innovation significantly improves operator performance in hazardous environments by providing immersive, unobstructed visual feedback. His research is notable for combining practical engineering solutions with emerging technologies like 3D printing and virtual reality, directly impacting the development of safer, more effective robotic systems for industrial and remote applications.
