About

Wenjie Ge is a robotics researcher whose work sits at the dynamic intersection of bioinspired locomotion, jumping robot design, and assistive wearable technologies. Drawing deeply from biological systems — particularly locusts and other jumping animals — Ge has made significant contributions to understanding and replicating the mechanics of jumping locomotion in robotic platforms. His most-cited work, a 2020 systematic review of jumping locomotion strategies across animals and robots (59 citations), established a comprehensive framework that has become a key reference in the field. Complementing this, his 2021 review of robotic knee prosthesis technologies (39 citations) demonstrates a broader commitment to human-robot interaction and rehabilitative engineering. Ge's earlier research on bio-inspired hopping robots for planetary exploration and search-and-rescue applications reflects a career-long drive to translate animal biomechanics into practical engineering solutions. His dedicated study of *Locusta migratoria* — examining how substrate compliance, roughness, and stability influence jumping performance — has enriched both biological modeling and robot design. With cumulative citations exceeding 200, Ge's body of work bridges fundamental biomechanics and applied robotics, offering valuable insights for researchers in legged locomotion, prosthetics, and field robotics.
