Biography
Zhenishbek is a PhD candidate, whose research passion is the ground-up design and fabrication of origami-inspired autonomous and reconfigurable robots (Robogamis), smart material-based actuators and mechanisms, and their control. Prior to joining RRL, he was with Micromechatronics Laboratory at Sabanci University in Turkey, where he obtained his Master's degree in Mechatronics Engineering. His previous research was on high precision control of piezo-walker actuators, design of a nano-meter precision positioning stage and a microfactory.
