About

Hanhui Li is a robotics researcher whose work centers on the design and development of anthropomorphic robotic hands that can perform complex, continuous manipulations—moving beyond simple grasping to actions like rotating a pen. His major contributions include pioneering a gesture-based control system for robotic hands and introducing a multi-layer deformable design that mimics the human hand’s composite structure of bones and soft tissues. This approach enables fast 3D modeling and fabrication, reducing complexity while maintaining dexterity. Li’s most cited paper (17 citations) proposes a single-material complex structure hand that balances anthropomorphism with reliability. He has also explored human-robot interaction, studying how elderly individuals engage with the humanoid robot Nadine during games like Bingo. With over 50 citations across his key works, Li’s research is advancing the practicality of prosthetic and robotic hands for daily tasks, bridging the gap between academic design and real-world utility.
