About
Kaicheng Qi is a robotics researcher whose work centers on the design and analysis of parallel mechanisms for rehabilitation and humanoid robotics, with a particular focus on ankle joint therapy. His most significant contribution is the development of a generalized spherical parallel mechanism for ankle rehabilitation, which he introduced in a 2021 paper that has garnered 29 citations. This work synthesizes module-based configurations and provides kinematic analysis tailored to the complex motion requirements of the human ankle. Qi further refined this concept in a related study, where he proposed a four-degree-of-freedom generalized spherical parallel mechanism, using screw theory to analyze motion characteristics and optimize scale for clinical application. Earlier in his career, Qi contributed to humanoid robotics with the SJTU-HR1 project, analyzing the state transition from sitting to standing—a critical capability for assistive robots. He also investigated the accuracy of novel parallel robots with orthogonal chains, demonstrating his long-standing interest in precision mechanisms. Qi’s research bridges theoretical kinematics and practical rehabilitation engineering, offering scalable solutions for medical robotics.
