About Me
Know Me More
I'm Ayberk Sadic, a Mechanical Engineer
I'm a PhD Student in Mechanical Systems Design Laboratory, Tokyo Institute of Technology. Our main research themes are design , analysis and optimization of next generation mechanical systems and their applications for robotics and mechatronics.
My research theme is the development of assistive and protective robotic exoskeletons for people who work in special fields that are suscepted to work-related musculo-skeletal diseases. To come up with an optimal design for these assistive robotic exoskeletons, I utilize biomechanical modelling and testing of human spine under certain work-related tasks using advanced techniques like motion capture, and electromyography measurements.
