About
Jiaze Sun is a robotics researcher specializing in the design, control, and autonomous navigation of wheel-legged rovers for extreme terrain exploration, including planetary and asteroid environments. His most impactful work, the TAWL rover (41 citations), introduces a novel active-passive coupled leg mechanism that enables terrain-adaptive wheel speed allocation, significantly enhancing mobility on uneven surfaces. Sun’s contributions extend to multi-robot systems, where he developed distributed formation control strategies inspired by fish shoaling to handle dynamic obstacle interference (11 citations). He also advanced rover autonomy with a plane-based grid mapping algorithm (3 citations) that supports motion planning in unstructured terrains, and conducted kinetostatic analysis of legged robots for asteroid exploration (2 citations). By integrating mechanical design with intelligent control, Sun’s research addresses critical challenges in space robotics, pushing the boundaries of how rovers perceive and adapt to unpredictable environments. His work is foundational for future missions requiring robust, autonomous exploration of other worlds.
