About
Sameer M. AlNajdi is a leading researcher at the intersection of augmented reality (AR) and engineering education, with a primary focus on how immersive technologies can transform hands-on learning. His most cited work, "The effectiveness of using augmented reality (AR) on assembling and exploring educational mobile robot in pedagogical virtual machine (PVM)" (2018, 39 citations), demonstrates a pivotal contribution: proving that AR significantly reduces cognitive load during complex assembly tasks. By providing a "magic-lens" view that overlays pre-defined action sequences onto physical objects, AlNajdi’s research shows how AR can guide students through intricate procedures with minimal instruction, effectively bridging the gap between virtual theory and physical practice. This work has established him as a key figure in the development of pedagogical virtual machines (PVMs) and mobile robotics education. His findings have direct implications for STEM curricula, offering a scalable, low-cost method to enhance spatial reasoning and procedural learning. AlNajdi’s research continues to shape how educators leverage AR to make technical assembly and exploration more intuitive, engaging, and effective for the next generation of engineers.
