About

M.S.B. Sehgal is a robotics researcher focused on human–robot interaction and intelligent control systems. Their work bridges gesture recognition, embedded systems, and mobile robotics, with a particular emphasis on making robotic platforms more intuitive and responsive to human commands. Sehgal’s most cited paper, “Object Detection and Gesture Control of Four-Wheel Mobile Robot” (2019), has garnered 10 citations and demonstrates a novel integration of accelerometer-based gesture control with a WiFi-enabled robotic arm mounted on a four-wheel mobile base. By translating human hand movements into precise robotic actions, this work advances the practical use of wearable sensors for real-time manipulation in unstructured environments. The system’s ability to combine object detection with gesture-driven control highlights Sehgal’s contribution to accessible, low-cost robotic interfaces. This research has implications for assistive technologies, remote operation, and educational robotics, showcasing Sehgal’s commitment to developing user-friendly systems that lower the barrier to robotic control. Their work continues to inspire new approaches in gesture-based automation and mobile manipulator design.
