About

Neda Hassanzadeh is a robotics researcher whose work focuses on the kinematic synthesis and mechanical design of multi-fingered and multi-palm robotic hands. Her research addresses fundamental challenges in robotic manipulation, particularly the coupling mechanisms required for hands with skew axes and the design processes that enable dexterous, task-specific hand synthesis. Her most cited work, "Coupling Mechanisms for Multi-Fingered Robotic Hands with Skew Axes" (2018), has garnered 15 citations, reflecting its relevance to the field of robotic grasping and manipulation. In her 2015 paper on design implementation for robotic hand synthesis, she explored kinematic synthesis approaches that define fingertip trajectories and joint axes to determine a hand’s basic kinematic structure. Her 2016 work on multi-palm robotic hands for assembly tasks introduced novel designs for bimanual manipulation, addressing the need for collaborative robotic arms in industrial settings. Hassanzadeh’s contributions are particularly valuable for advancing robotic dexterity in assembly and manufacturing, where precise, coordinated hand movements are essential. Her research continues to influence the development of more capable, task-oriented robotic hands.
