Dr. Raouf Fareh received Ph.D. and Master's degrees in electrical engineering from the University of Quebec (Ecole de Technologie Superieure), Canada, in 2008 and 2013, respectively. He then joined the University of Ottawa in 2013 as a Postdoctoral Researcher. He joined the University of Sharjah, UAE, in 2014. Currently, Dr. Fareh is an Associate Professor at the University of Sharjah, where he teaches courses related to robotics and control systems. His research interests include control and path planning for various types of robotic systems, such as manipulators, mobile robots, mobile manipulators, parallel robots, exoskeleton robots, drones, etc. In control theory, his research interests include mathematical modeling and linear and nonlinear control, such as active disturbance rejection control, distributed control, fractional control, sliding mode control, synergetic control, etc. In addition, he works on path planning for robotic systems using vision and image processing. He is a member of the Autonomous Robotics and Active Vision Research Group at the University of Sharjah. He collaborates with Power Electronics and Industrial Control Research Group (GRÉPCI) in ETS, Canada.
