About
Cheng-Tang Pan is a researcher whose work sits at the dynamic intersection of flexible electronics, advanced sensing technologies, and rehabilitation robotics. His most impactful contribution lies in the development of flexible piezoresistive tactile sensors, particularly those leveraging polymeric nanocomposites with grid-type microstructures — a 2021 paper that has garnered 40 citations and significantly advanced the field's understanding of low-pressure sensing performance through improved nanomaterial dispersion. Complementing this materials-focused work, Pan has made substantial contributions to lower limb robotic exoskeleton (LLRE) systems, designing multi-axis motor control architectures for mobility assistance, a 2018 study that has accumulated 18 citations. His research elegantly bridges hardware and intelligence, incorporating fuzzy logic-based gait phase detection systems that use custom-developed tactile sensors to classify human walking patterns in real time. His most recent work integrates near-field electrospinning piezoelectric sensors directly into robotic orthoses, representing a compelling evolution toward fully embedded, smart rehabilitation devices. Collectively, Pan's portfolio reflects a coherent and forward-thinking research vision: creating smarter, more sensitive, and more responsive assistive technologies for human movement and rehabilitation.
