About
Mohamed Sokar is a rising researcher in soft robotics, specializing in the design and optimization of pneumatic grippers for precision agriculture. His work focuses on how actuator morphology—particularly the geometric parameters of elastomer fingers, such as rib pitch and finger width—directly influences grasping performance and crop safety. Sokar’s major contributions include developing advanced simulation frameworks that enable the systematic optimization of 2-DOF soft pneumatic grippers, balancing compliance with gripping force for delicate handling in unstructured environments. His most cited paper, “Advanced Geometric Optimization and Simulation of 2-DOF Soft Pneumatic Grippers” (2024, 4 citations), introduces a novel approach to tailoring gripper geometry for enhanced adaptability and safety. A second key study (2023, 3 citations) quantifies how morphological variations affect agricultural grasping, providing actionable design guidelines. Though early in his career, Sokar’s simulation-driven methodology offers a scalable path to more efficient, crop-friendly robotic harvesting. His work bridges computational modeling and practical robotics, making him a notable voice in the growing field of soft gripper design for sustainable agriculture.
