About

Muhayy Ud Din is a robotics and autonomous systems researcher whose work spans intelligent perception, manipulation, marine robotics, and agricultural automation. His most influential contribution, "PMK—A Knowledge Processing Framework for Autonomous Robotics Perception and Manipulation" (2019, 62 citations), established a foundational framework for integrating semantic knowledge and spatial reasoning into robotic manipulation tasks, enabling robots to handle geometrically constrained, real-world scenarios with greater sophistication. Complementing this, his work on humanoid grasp planning drew inspiration from human hand-arm coordination to advance dexterous robotic motion. More recently, Din has expanded his research into maritime autonomy, developing unmanned surface vessels, GNSS-denied aerial transport systems, and heterogeneous multi-robot frameworks for open-sea object retrieval—addressing critical challenges in maritime security and environmental monitoring. His AquaChat project demonstrates pioneering use of large language model guidance for aquaculture inspection via remotely operated vehicles. Bridging robotics with agriculture, his tactile-visual fruit ripeness recognition system using SwishFormer highlights his commitment to practical, cross-domain innovation. With over 100 cumulative citations and publications spanning 2019 to 2025, Din represents a versatile and rapidly growing voice in applied robotics research.
