About

Mohammad Rafiqul Haider is a researcher whose work bridges flexible electronics and intelligent robotic systems. His primary research areas include capacitive sensing technologies, human-machine interfaces, and wireless control systems. Haider’s most influential contribution is his pioneering work on flexible capacitive sensors for high-resolution pressure measurement (2008, 62 citations), which introduced thin, robust sensors capable of detecting small loads with exceptional spatial and pressure resolution—a critical advancement for tactile robotics and biomechanics. This foundational work has enabled more sensitive and adaptable touch-sensing in soft robotics and prosthetic applications. He also made notable strides in human-robot interaction with his design of a hand movement-controlled robotic vehicle featuring wireless live streaming (2019, 17 citations). This system demonstrates practical, intuitive control interfaces that eliminate cumbersome input devices, showcasing Haider’s ability to translate sensor research into real-world assistive and telepresence technologies. His work has been cited over 80 times, reflecting its impact on both sensor design and applied robotics. Haider’s contributions continue to inspire innovations in wearable sensing and autonomous systems, making him a key figure in the evolution of intelligent, human-centered robotics.
