About
Junming Wang is a researcher whose work sits at the exciting intersection of soft robotics, flexible sensing, and machine learning. His most notable contribution focuses on solving one of the central challenges in soft robotics: accurately perceiving and controlling the posture of soft actuators. In his most-cited work, Wang developed an innovative end-to-end posture perception method that combines kirigami-inspired piezoresistive sensors with Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) neural networks, enabling closed-loop control of soft bending actuators. This approach is particularly significant because it bridges the gap between the inherently compliant, nonlinear behavior of soft robotic systems and the precision required for reliable real-world deployment. By drawing on kirigami — the Japanese art of paper cutting — as a structural design principle for flexible sensors, Wang demonstrates a creative fusion of traditional craft and cutting-edge engineering. His research has already garnered 14 citations since 2022, signaling growing interest from the robotics and wearable technology communities. Wang's work lays important groundwork for more responsive, autonomously controlled soft robots with promising applications in healthcare, rehabilitation, and human-robot interaction.
