About
Jinge Chen’s research career bridges two distinct, high-impact fields: micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) and intelligent robotics for electric power infrastructure. Chen is best known for pioneering work in the design and micromachining of an electromagnetic MEMS flapping-wing micro air vehicle, a foundational contribution to bio-inspired micro-robotics that has garnered 51 citations and remains a touchstone for researchers developing insect-scale drones. More recently, Chen has advanced the safety and autonomy of robots operating in live electrical distribution networks. By developing an improved particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm for end-effector load gravity compensation, Chen’s work enables robots to precisely sense and adapt to contact forces during high-risk live-line tasks. This innovation, which integrates six-dimensional force sensors on robot flanges, directly addresses the critical challenge of flexible, unmanned operation in energized environments. With contributions that span from millimeter-scale flapping mechanisms to real-world power grid maintenance, Chen demonstrates a rare versatility—combining deep microfabrication expertise with practical algorithmic solutions for industrial robotics.
