About

Jimmy Lauber’s research lies at the intersection of nonlinear control theory, mobile robotics, and rehabilitation engineering. His most influential work addresses the fundamental challenge of controlling non-holonomic wheeled mobile robots under practical constraints—particularly delayed sensor measurements and acceleration limits. His 2010 paper on PDC control for mobile robots with delayed outputs (52 citations) and the follow-up study on output feedback for unicycle-type robots with delayed measurements (30 citations) established robust frameworks that use flatness properties and nonlinear predictors to overcome measurement delays. Lauber also contributed to obstacle avoidance with his 2008 work on online piecewise Bézier curves (14 citations), enabling real-time trajectory replanning for moving obstacles. More recently, he has applied his control expertise to rehabilitation robotics, developing computed-torque control for parallel robots in ankle reeducation (13 citations) and LMI-based convex control strategies for assistive devices (2024). His work on the motoBOTTE rehabilitation device and human-robot-BCI cooperative patterns (2022) demonstrates a commitment to translating control theory into practical assistive technologies. With a career spanning foundational control methods and applied rehabilitation systems, Lauber’s research continues to shape how robots interact with uncertain environments and human users.
