About

Hao Gui is a robotics researcher whose work focuses on advancing autonomous navigation and industrial inspection through innovative laser-based sensing systems. His primary research areas include wall-climbing robotics for maritime applications, laser navigation without reflectors, and automated weld seam tracking. Gui’s most impactful contribution is his 2018 paper on “Identification of the deviation of seam tracking and weld cross type for the derusting of ship hulls using a wall-climbing robot based on three-line laser structural light,” which has garnered 54 citations. This work addresses critical challenges in ship hull maintenance by enabling precise, autonomous rust removal through real-time weld detection and tracking. In his 2019 study on “Matching for navigation map building for automated guided robot based on laser navigation without a reflector,” Gui explores reflector-free laser navigation, a technology that eliminates the need for physical markers, offering greater flexibility in path planning for automated logistics. With 8 citations, this paper highlights his contributions to scalable, cost-effective navigation systems. Gui’s research bridges practical industrial needs with cutting-edge sensing and control, making him a notable figure in applied robotics and automation.
