About
Ibrahim M. H. Sanhoury is a robotics and control systems researcher whose work centers on mobile robot navigation, trajectory tracking, and multi-robot coordination. His research has made meaningful contributions to the control of nonholonomic wheeled mobile robots — systems constrained in their motion — by developing mathematically rigorous controllers grounded in kinematic modeling and Lyapunov stability analysis. Sanhoury's most influential work includes a backstepping-based tracking controller for wheeled mobile robots (2017, 15 citations) and an earlier nonlinear feedback path tracking controller for differential steering systems (2011, 14 citations), both of which address the challenging problem of ensuring stable, precise trajectory following in constrained robotic platforms. Collectively, these contributions demonstrate his sustained focus on provably stable control design. A distinctive thread in Sanhoury's research is multi-robot formation control. Through a series of publications from 2012 to 2013, he developed synchronous control laws enabling groups of mobile robots to track trajectories while dynamically maintaining and switching between time-varying formations — work that also extended to obstacle avoidance scenarios. With over 50 cumulative citations across his portfolio, Sanhoury's research offers valuable foundational tools for students and engineers working at the intersection of autonomous robotics, formation planning, and nonlinear control theory.
