About

Jiabao Du is a pioneering researcher in the field of magnetic miniature robotics and intelligent maritime systems, whose work bridges the gap between small-scale actuation and real-world fluidic manipulation. Du’s primary contributions lie in developing advanced magnetic millirobots capable of multimodal locomotion—such as rolling, swimming, and crawling—enabling precise control in confined fluidic environments. Their most-cited paper, “Magnetic Shaftless Propeller Millirobot with Multimodal Motion for Small-Scale Fluidic Manipulation” (2025, 12 citations), introduces a novel shaftless propeller design that overcomes the longstanding challenge of balancing mobility with fluidic manipulation, offering transformative potential for targeted drug delivery and microsurgery. Additionally, Du’s earlier work on unmanned surface vehicles, “Design of Unmanned Ship Motion Control System Based on DSP and GPRS” (2018, 2 citations), showcases expertise in autonomous navigation and remote control for environmental monitoring and scientific survey tasks. With a growing citation impact, Du’s research is shaping the future of biomedical robotics and autonomous marine systems, demonstrating a rare ability to innovate across scales—from microscopic millirobots to full-sized unmanned ships.
