Labiyb's Portfolio

Hi, I’m Labiyb!

I am a robotics engineer at Kawada Robotics, working on computer vision and humanoid robotics. I completed my doctorate in Mechanical Systems Engineering at Tokyo Metropolitan University in March 2026, advised by Professor Naoyuki Takesue. My research focused on servo-driven flapping-wing aerial robots, including flight control, payload capacity, and onboard collision avoidance.

My experience spans manipulators, mobile robots, aerial robots, and unmanned surface vehicles. I develop complete robotic systems across mechanical design, electronics, embedded software, perception, planning, and control using C++, Python, and C. I build both ROS/ROS2-based and standalone systems without ROS, integrating microcontroller firmware, actuator interfaces, and sensor drivers with high-level software through shared memory and socket-based communication. My recent interest also includes robotic manipulation, computer vision, and learning-based locomotion.

Previously, I worked on ROS2 manipulator interfaces and system integration at QibiTech. During my internship at FingerVision, I worked on a UR3 evaluation platform with tactile sensing, vision-based object recognition and placement estimation, and imitation learning pipelines.

My robotics journey began at the Electronics Engineering Polytechnic Institute of Surabaya, where I earned my bachelor’s degree in Computer Engineering in 2018. I later completed my master’s degree at Tokyo Metropolitan University in 2021. Along the way, I contributed to teams that won the Indonesian Robocon 2016, placed third at ABU Robocon 2016, and placed third in the Customer Interaction Task at World Robot Summit @IFAC 2023.

I enjoy bringing hardware and software together to build robots that work reliably in real environments.
