About
Dr. Sujoy Mukherjee is a leading researcher in biomimetic robotics and smart actuator systems, with a primary focus on developing bio-inspired underwater vehicles. His work bridges mechanical design, dynamic modeling, and control theory to create soft, efficient propulsion systems. Dr. Mukherjee’s most significant contributions include the development of an in-pipe inspection robot (20 citations) and a dynamic model for an underwater robotic fish with a servo-actuated pectoral fin (18 citations). He has pioneered the use of Ionic Polymer Metal Composite (IPMC) actuators for biomimetic underwater propulsion, experimentally characterizing their actuation (10 citations) and designing velocity controllers for these soft propulsors (6 citations). Notably, his 2015 work introduced an underwater robot inspired by the jet propulsion of the feather sea star (*Antedon Petasus*), employing a cable-driven soft skeleton mechanism. His recent research extends into fractional-order modeling and control of IPMC propulsors (2025), showcasing his ongoing innovation. With over 60 total citations, Dr. Mukherjee’s work is foundational for students and researchers exploring soft robotics, bio-inspired design, and underwater autonomous systems.
