About

Ningze Wei is a robotics researcher whose work sits at the dynamic intersection of bio-inspired design, legged locomotion, and intelligent control systems. His primary research areas include bionic robotics, wheel-legged hybrid platforms, and optimal trajectory planning for agile machines. Wei’s most impactful contribution is the design and simulation of a bionic ostrich robot, a project that has garnered 16 citations for its novel approach to high-speed, energy-efficient terrestrial locomotion. He has also made significant strides in the cooperative control of wheel-legged robots, developing an attitude-balance strategy that seamlessly integrates the terrain adaptability of legs with the speed of wheels. In the domain of manipulator control, Wei proposed a time-optimal trajectory planning method using event-triggered and conditional proportional control, achieving 9 citations for its practical approach to actuator and workspace constraints. His theoretical work includes perturbation-based analytic solutions for the articulated SLIP model, advancing the understanding of dynamic stability in legged robots. Through optimization of swing leg retraction for hydraulic bipeds, Wei continues to push the boundaries of robotic agility and efficiency, establishing himself as a thoughtful contributor to the future of autonomous, terrain-capable machines.
