About
Peijin Zi is a leading researcher in bioinspired robotics, specializing in mechanical adhesion, multimodal locomotion, and intelligent attachment systems for extreme environments. Their work bridges biology and engineering, drawing inspiration from beetle claws and other biological attachment devices to develop novel robotic grippers and climbing systems. Zi’s most impactful contribution is the mechanical adhesive gripper inspired by beetle claw anatomy, designed for rock-climbing robots—a concept that has garnered 38 citations and laid the foundation for subsequent innovations. Their research on bioinspired reversible adhesive methods, with 36 citations, systematically explores how organisms achieve adhesion across scales and translates these principles into robotic applications. Zi also advanced quadruped and hexapod robot locomotion through gait analysis using metamorphic mechanisms and foot-force sensor-based contact parameter identification, improving mobility efficiency and stability. Notably, their 2024 work on an intelligent rock-climbing robot capable of multimodal locomotion and hybrid bioinspired attachment represents a significant leap in adaptability for fieldwork and planetary exploration. With over 120 total citations and contributions to collision detection for space reconfigurable robots, Zi’s work is pivotal for developing resilient, nature-inspired robots for challenging terrains.
