About

Cuicui Ji is a rising innovator in the field of soft robotics and adaptive manipulation, with a primary focus on developing advanced gripper technologies that merge mechanical compliance with active adhesion. Her most-cited work, "Design and development of a variable structure gripper with electroadhesion" (2024), introduces a novel soft gripper that integrates electroadhesion with a variable-structure framework, enabling precise, gentle, and reversible grasping of diverse objects—from delicate produce to irregular industrial items. This contribution addresses a critical challenge in robotics: achieving reliable grip without damaging fragile surfaces. With 15 citations in its first year, the paper signals strong early impact in the soft robotics community. Ji’s research holds transformative potential for real-world applications, particularly in agricultural picking and automated item sorting, where adaptability and care are paramount. Her work exemplifies a thoughtful blend of mechanical design and smart material integration, positioning her as a promising voice in next-generation robotic manipulation.
