Intro

About Me

I'm Ayberk, a Mechanical and Robotics Engineer

I'm currently pursuing my PhD at the Mechanical Systems Design Laboratory, Institute of Science Tokyo. My research focuses on the design, modelling, analysis and optimization of next-generation mechanical systems with applications in robotics, biomechanics, and assistive technologies.

My doctoral research centers around developing robotic exoskeletons aimed at prevention of work-related musculoskeletal disorders in specialized labor environments. To achieve optimal designs, I integrate techniques such as biomechanical modelling, motion capture and electromyography measurements (EMG) to study human body dynamics during complex occupational tasks.

Previously, I founded Mekadermis (2018-2024), an Istanbul-based haptic technologies startup where we developed entertainment platforms that create virtual touch illusions and immersive experiences. I led the development of our haptics entertainment platform. We also provided customized robotics and industrial automation solutions for our business clients. I bring a multidisciplinary background that blends engineering, collaborative development, and strategic planning to tackle complex real-world challenges through innovative design and intelligent solutions.
