About
Dr. Yoga Bachtiar is a robotics researcher whose work centers on the mechanical design and kinematic analysis of prosthetic devices, with a particular focus on advancing affordable and functional upper-limb replacements. His major contribution lies in the development of the T-FLoW 3.0 prosthetic robot hand, a sophisticated system featuring 15 degrees of freedom (DoF) actuated by just six motors. In his foundational 2018 paper, which has garnered 4 citations, Bachtiar conducted a detailed mechanical and forward kinematic analysis of this hand, establishing the core principles for its movement and structural integrity. This work is notable for its efficient underactuation mechanism, which allows for complex, multi-joint finger motion using fewer actuators—a critical step toward creating more natural, lightweight, and cost-effective prosthetics. By bridging theoretical kinematics with practical mechanical design, Bachtiar’s research offers a valuable framework for engineers and students aiming to improve the functionality and accessibility of prosthetic hands for amputees.
