About
Manuj Trehan is a robotics researcher whose work centers on the practical implementation and educational accessibility of robotic manipulators. His most-cited paper, "Implementation of Joint Control of a 6-DOF Manipulator in ROS: KOBOKER for Robotics Education" (2019), demonstrates his core contribution: bridging the gap between industrial-grade hardware and open-source software for learning environments. In this work, Trehan details the integration of a 6-DOF KOBOKER arm with the Robot Operating System (ROS), establishing a critical interface between the EPOS motor driver and ROS to enable precise joint control. This achievement provides a replicable framework for students and researchers to experiment with real robotic systems without requiring expensive proprietary software. While his citation count is modest, the impact of his work lies in its pedagogical value—offering a clear, step-by-step methodology that lowers the barrier to entry for hands-on robotics education. Trehan’s research is particularly notable for its focus on practical implementation, making complex control theory tangible for learners. His contributions support the growing movement to democratize robotics training, equipping the next generation of engineers with essential skills in ROS-based automation.
