Rate My Professor Migara Liyanage

Professor Liyanage's research focuses on mechatronics, integrated and automated design, control sensors and actuators, embedded systems, and energy-environmental modelling. He specializes in developing high-speed industrial automation systems for product inspection and defect removal, utilizing high-speed robotic manipulators, novel sensors, and embedded systems based on Field Programmable Gate Array technology. His scholarly output includes the book "Climate Policy and Energy Development in Thailand - An Assessment" co-authored with Shrestha Ram M. and Malla Sunil (2014), and peer-reviewed journal articles such as "An Embedded System for a High-Speed Manipulator With Single Time Scale Visual Servoing" (ASME Journal of Dynamic Systems, Measurement, and Control, 2017), "Factors Affecting CO2 Emissions from the Power Sector in Selected Countries of Asia & the Pacific" (Energy Policy, 2009), "Effects of Carbon Tax on Greenhouse Gas Mitigation in Thailand" (Climate Policy, 2008), and "Scenario-based Analyses of Energy Systems Development & its Environmental Implications in Thailand" (Energy Policy, 2007). Additionally, he has presented numerous papers at international conferences, including IEEE ICRA and IROS, on high-speed SCARA robotic arms and energy systems. Current interests include power signal disaggregation using AI, real-time energy monitoring and optimization, large-scale renewable energy integration, and zero-carbon futures.
