We’re thrilled 🤩 to announce our first online webinar in a series at IEEE RAS Egypt!

✨ Title: Bridging Biomechanics and Robotics: A Framework for Developing Wearable Assistive Robotics in Lower Limb Rehabilitation and Assistance

🎙 Meet our Speaker: Prof. Mohammed Ibrahim Awad
Head of the Mechatronics Engineering Department at Ain Shams University.

🧠 What’s in it for you?
Join us to explore the future of wearable robotics—prosthetics, orthotics, and exoskeletons—that are transforming rehab and mobility!

Here’s what we’ll cover:
• 🚶‍♂️ Human gait analysis & FSM-based segmentation
• 🧩 Hierarchical control frameworks syncing human intent with robotic response
• 📊 Performance metrics: metabolic cost, kinematics & kinetics
• 🏨 Real-world applications improving patient care & mobility

Prof. Awad holds a B.Sc. & M.Sc. in Mechanical Engineering from Ain Shams University and a Ph.D. in Mechatronics from the University of Leeds, UK. He also served as a research fellow at the Institute of Design, Robotics and Optimisation (IDRO), University of Leeds. With a rich background in robotics, autonomous underwater vehicles, and biomechatronics, he now leads groundbreaking research in robotic systems for healthcare and industry.
