About
Jiatong Sun is a robotics researcher whose work centers on advancing dexterous, in-hand manipulation for robotic systems. Their primary research areas include the design and control of non-anthropomorphic grippers, with a focus on enabling robots to perform complex object reorientation and movement within a single grasp. Sun’s major contribution is the development of the Roller Grasper V3, a novel four-fingered grasper featuring steerable rollers on each fingertip. This design allows for smooth, continuous in-hand manipulation without the need for regrasping, overcoming a key limitation in traditional robotic hands. The Roller Grasper V3, presented in 2024, has already garnered 6 citations, signaling its early impact in the field of robotic manipulation. Sun’s work is notable for its practical, non-anthropomorphic approach, which simplifies control while achieving high dexterity—a valuable trade-off for real-world applications like assembly or surgical assistance. By pushing the boundaries of how robots interact with objects, Sun is helping to unlock new capabilities for autonomous systems in manufacturing and service robotics.
