I build robotic systems from actuator design to closed-loop control
I design electrohydraulic muscles and compliant joints, build high-voltage driver electronics and PCB hardware, and implement real-time control on physical systems.
My contributions have been published in IEEE RA-L and ICRA, IROS, Nature Communications, and Science Advances, with a focus on end-to-end execution from concept to on-hardware validation.
Focus Areas
- Hardware: actuator architecture, compliant mechanisms, fabrication workflows, and integration. Examples: stretchable antagonistic muscle and PELE leg integration.
- Electronics: high-voltage drivers, PCB design (Altium), sensing interfaces, and safety constraints. Example: high-voltage driver electronics and PCB design.
- Control: nonlinear modeling, real-time C++ pipelines, and closed-loop hardware validation. Examples: PELE control, adaptive continuum control, SSM data-driven control, and hard-constraint kinematics.
Selected Results
- PELE musculoskeletal leg: 500 Hz multithreaded C++ cascaded control, >5 Hz gait, up to 40% jump height, and cost of transport (COT) down to 0.73 (paper).
- Stretchable antagonistic joint muscle: 58% higher strain than pouch-count-matched baselines (paper).
- Adaptive continuum control: 38% better tracking than inverse-dynamics baselines under payload variation (paper).
- SSM data-driven muscle control: 69% RMS tracking-error reduction versus feedback-only baseline (arXiv:2601.03247).
