About
Dr. Jiaming Leng is a pioneering roboticist whose research pushes the boundaries of insect-scale and millimeter-sized robots. His core contributions lie in developing novel actuation principles and locomotion mechanisms that enable unprecedented speed, agility, and multi-modal movement in tiny machines. Dr. Leng’s work directly addresses the critical challenge of performance degradation when these microrobots carry payloads. His most notable achievement is the BHMbot, a 2-cm legged robot that achieves ultrafast untethered running speeds, a breakthrough detailed in his 2024 paper (40 citations). He has also created a flea-sized robot (3.4 mm) capable of both powerful jumping and fast crawling (22 citations), and a millimeter-scale robot with controlled crawling and jumping (9 citations). His research extends to centimeter-scale electrohydrodynamic robots that can roll, hop, and take off (6 citations). By modeling and testing fast-crawling millimeter-sized robots (5 citations), Dr. Leng is systematically advancing the field of microrobotics, bringing us closer to practical applications in search-and-rescue, environmental monitoring, and medical procedures.
