About

Feilong Jiang is a robotics researcher specializing in biomimetic locomotion systems and the control of pneumatic artificial muscle (PAM)-driven mechanisms. His work centers on designing and controlling humanoid lower limb robots that closely replicate the anatomical muscle distribution and mechanical behavior of human limbs — a challenge that has long eluded conventional robotic control approaches. Jiang's most notable contribution lies in his development of parallel lower limb robotic systems actuated by antagonistic PAMs, detailed in his 2017 paper, which has garnered 12 citations. This work addressed a critical gap in the field: existing PAM-driven robots either failed to mimic realistic human muscle arrangements or relied on control algorithms ill-suited to the nonlinear, hysteretic nature of pneumatic actuators. His subsequent 2021 study on a humanoid lower limb prototype advanced this further, introducing an observer-based fuzzy adaptive control framework that improves real-time adaptability and precision in PAM-driven systems. Together, these contributions reflect Jiang's broader mission to bridge biological realism and engineering practicality in rehabilitation and assistive robotics. His research offers meaningful implications for prosthetics, exoskeletons, and next-generation bionic systems designed to support human mobility.
