About

Noura Ayadi is a robotics researcher whose work bridges assistive healthcare technologies and autonomous mobile robot navigation. Her research focuses on three interconnected areas: rehabilitation robotics for pediatric patients, simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) for wheeled robots, and real-time motion control systems. Her most impactful contribution addresses a critical need in pediatric care—designing robotic rehabilitation systems for children with cerebral palsy, a work that has garnered 9 citations and demonstrates the practical application of robotics in improving quality of life. Ayadi has also advanced autonomous navigation through experimental evaluation of EKF-SLAM algorithms on Wifibot platforms (7 citations), and developed robust PID-based motion controllers for DC gear motors in mobile robots (7 citations). Her comparative study on optimal path planning further showcases her systematic approach to solving collision-free navigation challenges. Through her work, Ayadi contributes to making mobile robots more reliable in sensitive applications ranging from healthcare to nuclear technologies, while her rehabilitation research highlights a compassionate commitment to using robotics for social good.
