About

Jiangqi Long is a researcher advancing the field of tactile sensing and robotic manipulation, with a focus on prosthetic hand technology. Their work centers on developing innovative force and temperature sensors that enable more natural and precise interaction for prosthetic and robotic fingertips. Long’s key contributions include the design of a three-dimensional force/temperature composite flexible sensor (2023, 18 citations), which integrates multiple sensing modalities into a single compliant structure. They also introduced a compliant three-axis force sensor with a solid–liquid hybrid cover (2023, 6 citations), a novel approach that overcomes the hysteresis and accuracy limitations of traditional elastic covers by combining rigid and fluidic elements. Additionally, Long investigated the localized displacement phenomenon of sliding soft fingertips under varying grasp forces (2022, 4 citations), providing critical insights for slip prediction in prosthetic hands. This work directly addresses the challenge of achieving stable, adaptive grip in assistive devices. By tackling the trade-off between compliance and measurement fidelity, Long’s research contributes to more responsive and reliable prosthetic systems, with potential applications in rehabilitation robotics and human-machine interfaces.
