About

Junlin Cui is a rising innovator in the field of surgical robotics and fiber optic sensing, with a focused expertise in developing high-precision force sensors for minimally invasive procedures. Their most notable contribution is the design of a hollow fiber Bragg grating (FBG)-based 3-axis force sensor, detailed in their 2024 paper, which enables surgical robots to safely perceive and respond to forces between instruments and tissue. This work addresses a critical challenge in robotic surgery—enhancing tactile feedback for safer, more effective operations. By integrating FBG technology into a compact, hollow structure, Cui’s sensor offers a novel solution for real-time force detection without compromising instrument flexibility. Though early in their career, with their key paper already garnering citations, Cui’s research promises to advance the precision and autonomy of surgical robots. Their work stands at the intersection of mechanical design and optical sensing, marking them as a promising contributor to next-generation medical robotics.
