About

Suwan Bu is a robotics researcher whose work centers on intelligent manipulation, vision-guided systems, and contact-rich assembly automation. Bu’s major contributions lie in enhancing robotic environmental adaptability and precision in complex tasks. Their most cited work, "Vision-guided manipulator operating system based on CSRT algorithm" (2022, 21 citations), introduced a novel vision-guided system using the CSRT algorithm to improve a manipulator’s ability to track and interact with dynamic environments, supported by rigorous kinematic modeling. Bu further advanced mobile robotics with "Design and Motion Control of Spherical Robot With Built-In Four-Wheel Omnidirectional Mobile Platform" (2023, 11 citations), a design that increases friction and reduces slipping, boosting velocity and control. In the realm of assembly automation, Bu’s recent research tackles high-stakes industrial challenges. Their 2025 paper on tactile skewness analysis and contact state recognition for flexible printed circuits assembly (5 citations) fuses tactile and wrist force data to enable robust assembly of delicate components. Another 2025 work improves searching strategies for avionics connector assembly (2 citations) through contact state recognition. Bu’s research is directly applicable to the 3C and aerospace industries, demonstrating a clear trajectory from foundational vision and motion control to sophisticated, sensor-driven assembly solutions.
