About

Gourinath Banda is a robotics researcher whose work bridges bio-inspired design, autonomous systems, and security applications. His primary research areas include bio-inspired robotics, wall-climbing mechanisms, autonomous aerial vehicles, and robot-based surveillance. Banda’s most significant contribution is the development of a lizard-inspired quadruped wall-climbing robot that uses pressure-sensitive adhesion (PSA) for vertical locomotion. His 2022 paper on this topic, with 14 citations, details the robot’s trot-gait kinematics and peeling mechanism, offering a novel approach to climbing surfaces. He further refined this design in a 2021 paper, emphasizing bionic gait patterns. Beyond climbing robots, Banda has contributed to autonomous personal aerial vehicles (PAVs) through the PAVeDS synthetic dataset (2023), addressing challenges in high-density air traffic. He has also advanced mobile robot security with a lightweight deep learning weapon detection model (2023) and a secure communication system for surveillance (2021), the latter developed under the IMPRINT consortium project. With a portfolio spanning foundational robotics to applied security, Banda’s work demonstrates how bio-inspired engineering can solve real-world challenges in locomotion, autonomy, and safety.
