The Biomechatronics Laboratory is located in the 4th Academic Building (AB4) at Özyeğin University, Istanbul. Our laboratory focuses on developing advanced robotic and mechatronic systems that enhance the quality of life of individuals experiencing physical impairments. We pursue research at the intersection of human biomechanics, robotics, and control engineering, with an emphasis on real-world applicability and safe human–robot interaction.
Our research philosophy is centered on the development of feasible human–robot symbiosis, in which humans and robots are designed and modeled as a tightly coupled dynamic system. We focus on robotic solutions that can physically assist humans in a biomechanically compatible, dependable, and human-centered manner.
Our research activities span the full development cycle of human-interactive robotic systems, including mechatronic hardware design and manufacturing, mathematical modeling and system identification, biomechanically feasible sensor–actuator interface design, real-time controller synthesis, motion planning, simulation and experimental studies, and data analysis.
