About

Panlong Wu is a robotics researcher whose work bridges artistic expression and autonomous navigation. His primary research areas include robotic manipulation, autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), and sensor-integrated control systems. Wu’s most notable contribution is his pioneering work on artistic robotic pencil sketching, where he introduced a closed-loop force control system that uses tactile sensing to compensate for pencil wear—a breakthrough that enables robots to produce consistent, high-quality sketches. This work, published in 2022, has already garnered 11 citations, highlighting its impact on the intersection of robotics and art. In the domain of autonomous navigation, Wu developed an omnidirectional automated guided vehicle (AGV) that fuses 2D laser maps with 3D point clouds using ORB-SLAM, achieving robust localization under the ROS framework. His 2023 paper on this topic has received 5 citations. Wu also demonstrated practical innovation by designing an AMR with an eye-in-hand robot arm capable of depressing elevator buttons—a challenging task requiring precise hybrid navigation. With a growing citation record and a focus on real-world applications, Wu is establishing himself as a versatile engineer advancing both creative and functional robotics.
