About

Harendra Pal Singh is a robotics researcher whose work bridges intelligent control, manipulation, and astronomical instrumentation. His primary research areas include robotic manipulator control, force/motion coordination for constrained mobile robots, and the development of educational robotic telescopes. Singh’s most impactful contribution is his 2017 paper on an unsupervised learning-based neural network approach for robotic manipulators, which has garnered 38 citations—a strong indicator of its influence in the field of autonomous control. He further advanced the domain with his 2019 study on force/motion control of constrained mobile manipulators, incorporating actuator dynamics to improve real-world performance. Beyond traditional robotics, Singh contributed to the U–SMART initiative, a collaborative project among universities to design small aperture robotic telescopes (SmART) for student-led variable star observation and transient follow-ups. This work highlights his commitment to democratizing access to robotic systems for education and research. With a growing citation record and a portfolio spanning neural control, mobile manipulation, and astronomical robotics, Singh is establishing himself as a versatile researcher whose work has practical implications for both industrial automation and scientific discovery.
