About

Rung-Shiang Cheng’s research bridges robotics, automation, and smart home technologies, with a focus on enhancing the mobility and control of robotic systems in constrained environments. His major contribution includes the development of an indoor positioning platform for the iRobot Create 2, addressing the critical challenge of short-range movement in domestic robots. This work, published in 2018, has garnered 4 citations and lays groundwork for more intelligent navigation in smart homes. Earlier, Cheng contributed to industrial automation with his 1974 study on asynchronous sequential control of a billet handling system for feeding a hot forging machine, which earned 3 citations and highlights his pioneering role in early robotics applications. His research demonstrates a long-standing commitment to solving real-world movement and control problems, from factory floors to living rooms. Notably, his work on the iRobot platform is particularly relevant for students and researchers exploring affordable, scalable indoor navigation solutions. Cheng’s career reflects a unique blend of industrial and domestic robotics, offering valuable insights into the evolution of automated systems across different scales.
