About

Daxing Sun is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of micro-robotics and environmental remediation, whose work is redefining how we approach pollutant purification and droplet-based locomotion. His most influential contribution is the development of a groundbreaking robot platform for highly efficient pollutant purification (2022, 22 citations), which integrates a flapping-wing micro aircraft (FWMA) for long-range transport with cost-effective Janus microrobots for targeted adsorption. This system represents a paradigm shift, combining aerial delivery with microscopic cleanup agents for unprecedented environmental decontamination. Sun has also made seminal advances in droplet robotics, notably through his study of a self-propelled submarine-like water droplet robot in oil solvent (2020, 14 citations). By demonstrating controllable phototaxis motion in oil-phase environments—a departure from conventional water-phase studies—he has opened new avenues for droplet robots as carriers and sensors in oil exploration and biomedical applications. His work bridges macro-scale transport and micro-scale actuation, earning recognition for its innovation in autonomous systems. With a growing citation impact, Sun’s research continues to inspire new strategies for intelligent, bio-inspired robots tackling real-world challenges.
