About
Gatot Supangkat is a robotics researcher whose work sits at the intersection of healthcare engineering and autonomous systems, with a particular focus on developing mobile robotic platforms for medical applications. His most significant contribution is the design and control of a four-wheel omnidirectional Covid-19 aromatherapy robot, a specialized Unmanned Ground Vehicle (UGV) that delivers vaporized essential oils and therapeutic drugs to patients. This work, detailed in his most-cited paper (18 citations), addresses the critical need for contactless treatment delivery during the pandemic, employing PID-based control with odometry for precise trajectory tracking. Supangkat’s research extends beyond technical development into community implementation, as demonstrated by his work on empowering mosque communities to use these robots for immune system support (3 citations). His approach uniquely combines advanced control systems engineering with practical, community-oriented healthcare solutions, creating robots that can navigate complex indoor environments while delivering inhalation therapy—a treatment particularly valuable for pulmonary conditions. By bridging the gap between robotic control theory and real-world pandemic response, Supangkat has established himself as a researcher focused on deploying technology where it can have immediate, tangible impact on public health.
