POSTED: 23 May, 2026
Congratulations to University of Technology Sydney PhD researcher Nadimul Haque on the successful completion of his CA3!
Nadimul’s PhD research, entitled: Skill Learning and Efficient Adaptation for Robot Manipulation, focuses on how collaborative robots can safely and intelligently perform manipulation tasks in dynamic environments. His work brings together perception, planning, situational awareness, and learning‑based control to support close human‑robot interaction in settings that extend beyond fixed, highly structured factory floors.. His work has been conducted in close collaboration with InfraBuild, ensuring the research is grounded in practical challenges and delivers meaningful impact for Australian industry.
