About

Shreya Trivedi is a robotics and biomedical engineer whose work addresses urgent public health challenges through intelligent automation. Her most-cited research, "Design and Development of Ultra-Violet Light Disinfectant Robot" (2021, 10 citations), emerged directly from the COVID-19 pandemic, proposing a mobile UV-C robot to autonomously disinfect high-risk surfaces in hospitals and public spaces. This contribution—combining sensor integration, path planning, and germicidal efficacy—offered a scalable, contact-free solution to reduce viral transmission when human cleaning posed infection risks. Beyond this flagship paper, Trivedi’s broader research spans human-robot interaction, low-cost medical devices, and autonomous navigation for service robots. Her work is notable for its practical, deployable focus: the disinfectant robot was designed with affordability and ease of manufacturing in mind, targeting resource-limited settings. While her citation count reflects a growing field, the timeliness and societal relevance of her contributions have positioned her as a promising early-career innovator. Trivedi’s research exemplifies how robotics can directly respond to global health emergencies, making her a researcher to watch in the intersection of autonomous systems and public safety.
