About

Sahand Sabet is a pioneering roboticist whose work bridges aerial, terrestrial, and hybrid mobility systems for extreme environments. His research focuses on energy-aware robotics, dynamic modeling, and robust control of nondeterministic multibody systems. Sabet’s most notable contribution is the Rollocopter (29 citations), a novel hybrid aerial-ground platform that uses multi-rotor propellers enclosed in a spherical shell to both roll and fly, enabling unprecedented mobility on extreme terrains. He further advanced spherical robot technology through dynamic modeling and path planning for uneven terrains (25 citations), addressing critical energy efficiency challenges. His BAXTER platform (16 citations) introduced bi-modal aerial-terrestrial capabilities for long-endurance missions. In rehabilitation robotics, Sabet developed optimal Stewart platform designs and computed torque control strategies for lower extremity robotic rehabilitation (6 and 5 citations), accounting for patient uncertainty and system variability. His robust control framework for nondeterministic multibody systems (4 citations) provides foundational theory for handling parameter uncertainties in complex robotic systems. With over 97 total citations across his portfolio, Sabet’s work has significant implications for search and rescue, agriculture, and medical robotics, establishing him as a leading voice in hybrid mobility and adaptive control.
