About

Norhana Arsad is a multidisciplinary researcher whose work spans photonics, biomedical engineering, inertial sensing, and artificial intelligence. Her most impactful recent contributions lie at the intersection of biophotonics and nanotechnology, with pioneering work on nanophotonic catheters for biosensing and biomedical imaging, needle-guided chiplets interfaced with AI, and the integration of nanorobotics with biophotonics for drug delivery and therapeutic applications — a cluster of papers that has collectively garnered over 60 citations since 2024 alone, signaling rapidly growing interest in her vision for next-generation medical diagnostics. Beyond biomedical optics, Arsad has demonstrated a strong command of inertial navigation systems, evidenced by her widely referenced 2016 study on low-cost MEMS gyroscope and accelerometer implementation, which addressed practical angle-estimation challenges in robotics without relying on Kalman filtering and has accumulated 26 citations. Her 2024 comprehensive review of gyrocompassing methods — covering Carouseling and Maytagging techniques — further underscores her expertise in precision sensing. More recently, she has expanded into artificial intelligence, contributing a taxonomic review of reinforcement learning evolution. Arsad's research profile reflects a rare ability to bridge hardware sensing, photonic instrumentation, and intelligent systems for real-world biomedical and engineering applications.
