About

Md Assad-Uz-Zaman is a leading researcher in rehabilitation robotics, specializing in the design and control of wearable exoskeletons and robotic systems for upper limb recovery, particularly for post-stroke patients. His major contributions include developing novel robotic platforms such as the "Flexohand"—a hybrid exoskeleton for hand rehabilitation—and an ergonomic robotic shoulder that enhances human-robot interaction and comfort. He has also pioneered control strategies like adaptive super-twisting and flatness-based control to handle dynamic uncertainties in exoskeleton systems, improving safety and performance. His work on the NAO robot for cooperative and telerehabilitation training demonstrates a commitment to accessible, remote therapy solutions. With over 222 citations across his top ten papers, his research has significantly advanced the field, addressing key challenges in functionality, portability, and control. Notable achievements include the design of a dual-functionality upper limb rehabilitative robot and a comprehensive review identifying critical barriers to exoskeleton adoption. Assad-Uz-Zaman’s innovations are paving the way for more effective, user-friendly, and home-based rehabilitation technologies.
