About
Lei Cui is a leading researcher in robotics, with a primary focus on dexterous manipulation, rehabilitation robotics, and human-robot interaction. His most influential contribution is the pioneering development of the Metahand, a novel multifingered metamorphic hand with a foldable, reconfigurable palm—a concept first introduced in his highly cited 2009 paper (155 citations). This work fundamentally enhanced robotic hand adaptability and workspace. Dr. Cui has also made significant strides in autonomous manipulation, developing integrated systems that combine perception, planning, and control for dexterous tasks (120 citations). His research extends into assistive technologies, including the design of a 3D-printable, non-assembly hand exoskeleton for rehabilitation (60 citations) and an attention-controlled wrist rehabilitation system using low-cost EEG sensors (44 citations). Further notable work includes neural adaptive control for robots under constraints and bio-inspired amphibious robots for environmental monitoring. With a portfolio of highly cited papers spanning from fundamental kinematics to applied neural control, Dr. Cui’s work has profoundly impacted both the theory and practice of robotic manipulation and rehabilitation.
