About

Norhashim Mohd Arshad is a researcher whose work lies at the intersection of autonomous systems and sensor-based robotics, with a particular focus on practical, cost-effective navigation solutions. His most cited contribution, "Single infra-red sensor technique for line-tracking autonomous mobile vehicle" (2011, 15 citations), addresses a fundamental challenge in industrial automation: how to achieve reliable floor-based line tracking with minimal hardware. By demonstrating that a single infrared sensor could replace multi-sensor arrays commonly used in warehouse transport robots and competition platforms, Arshad’s work offered a streamlined, lower-cost approach that improved accessibility for both industrial and educational applications. This innovation is especially relevant for enclosed environments like factories, where autonomous guided vehicles (AGVs) must navigate precisely without complex sensor suites. While his citation count reflects a focused but impactful contribution, Arshad’s research underscores a key principle in robotics engineering—simplicity and efficiency can drive adoption in real-world systems. His work continues to inform the design of lightweight, low-power line-tracking solutions, making him a notable figure in the development of affordable autonomous mobile vehicle technologies for logistics and manufacturing.
