About
Dr. Jinghui Cao is a leading researcher in rehabilitation robotics, specializing in the development of intelligent control systems for robotic exoskeletons and gait trainers. His work focuses on addressing the critical challenges of human-robot interaction, particularly the nonlinear dynamics of pneumatic muscle actuators (PMAs), to create safer and more effective assistive devices. Dr. Cao’s major contributions include pioneering control strategies for both upper-limb and lower-limb rehabilitation, with a landmark review on robot-assisted gait rehabilitation (154 citations) that has shaped the field’s understanding of state-of-the-art techniques. He developed a MIMO sliding mode controller for gait exoskeletons (91 citations), offering robust trajectory control despite PMA hysteresis, and designed the compliant ankle rehabilitation robot (CARR) for treating drop foot, which demonstrated clinical promise with its bio-inspired, multi-degree-of-freedom actuation. His comprehensive review of high-level control for upper-limb rehabilitation (54 citations) further underscores his influence. With over 400 total citations across his most-cited works, Dr. Cao’s research bridges theoretical control engineering and practical rehabilitation, advancing the frontier of human-inspired robotic therapy.
