About
Chaofeng Wu is a pioneering roboticist whose research lies at the intersection of bio-inspired design and multi-modal locomotion, with a focus on insect-scale and underwater robots. His major contributions include the development of a multi-modal tailless flapping-wing robot capable of flying, crawling, self-righting, and horizontal take-off—a breakthrough for confined-environment missions, cited 33 times. He has also advanced flapping-wing micro aerial vehicles (FMAVs) by designing active disturbance rejection control systems that stabilize hover under internal and external disturbances, achieving 18 citations. In underwater robotics, Wu created a fish-like miniature robot driven by piezoelectric actuators, enabling high-speed, controllable locomotion with 16 citations. His work extends to insect-scale crawling robots with exceptional load capacities, capable of carrying 100 times their own weight. Wu’s achievements include integrating onboard 3D velocity perception for disturbance measurement and nonlinear longitudinal modeling for stroke plane modulation. With a growing citation impact, his research is instrumental in pushing the boundaries of small-scale, versatile robots for real-world applications in surveillance, exploration, and search-and-rescue.
