About
Haoran Zhong is a robotics researcher whose work focuses on enabling safe, compliant human–robot interaction through advanced actuation and control. His primary research areas include series elastic actuators (SEAs), bipedal locomotion, and human–robot collaboration. Zhong’s major contributions center on developing fast-response admittance control methods for hydraulic SEAs, addressing critical time-delay issues that previously limited their use in safe interaction scenarios. He has also proposed a novel variable spring-loaded inverted pendulum model with a finite-sized foot, advancing bipedal walking by improving controllability and mobility over traditional underactuated models. His work on online gait generation using neural networks enables humanoid robots to walk quickly on uneven terrain. With over 100 combined citations, his most influential papers include “Kinematic calibration method for a two-segment hydraulic leg based on an improved whale swarm algorithm” (29 citations) and “Toward Safe Human–Robot Interaction: A Fast-Response Admittance Control Method for Series Elastic Actuator” (27 citations). Zhong’s research is notable for its practical impact on industrial robotics, where his parameter self-optimization and delay compensation techniques enhance both safety and performance in collaborative environments.
