About
Na Yang is a robotics researcher whose work focuses on the kinematic control and teleoperation of wheeled mobile robots (WMRs), particularly in challenging off-road and soft-terrain environments. Her primary research areas include haptic teleoperation, slippage compensation, and terrain-adaptive control for mobile robotics. Yang’s most notable contribution is her 2019 paper on kinematic teleoperation of WMRs with slippage compensation on soft terrains, which has garnered 10 citations and addresses a critical challenge in planetary exploration and industrial robotics: maintaining precise control when wheels lose traction on deformable surfaces like lunar regolith. By developing a novel approach for haptic feedback-driven teleoperation, she enables operators to intuitively command robots while the system autonomously compensates for wheel slip, improving both safety and task efficiency. This work has implications for space exploration, agriculture, and disaster response robotics. Yang’s research bridges the gap between theoretical kinematics and real-world robotic performance, making her a promising voice in the field of field robotics and human-robot interaction.
