About

Haibin Wu is a prominent researcher specializing in robotics, tactile sensing, and human-robot interaction, whose work bridges intelligent sensing systems with practical robotic applications. His most significant contributions center on the development of innovative flexible and stretchable tactile sensors, including large-area textile-based designs and piezoresistive arrays capable of simultaneously detecting contact position and force — work that has each garnered 41 citations. Wu has pioneered the application of Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) to tactile sensing and explored highly sensitive capacitive pressure sensors using elastic metallized sponges, advancing the frontier of electronic skin technology for robotics. Beyond sensing, Wu has made meaningful strides in robot safety and precision, developing momentum-based collision detection algorithms and virtual sensor approaches that protect humans during physical robot interaction. His calibration method for improving absolute positioning accuracy in industrial robots reflects a commitment to real-world deployment challenges. More recently, his work on dual-robot cooperative assembly trajectory planning demonstrates an expanding scope toward multi-robot coordination. With a portfolio exceeding 260 cumulative citations, Wu's research represents a cohesive and impactful body of work that meaningfully advances intelligent, safe, and responsive robotic systems.
