About
Tianyong Zhang is a leading researcher in robotics and networked control systems, with a focus on advancing teleoperation and collaborative autonomy for mobile robots. His work addresses critical challenges in multi-agent systems, including communication delays, data loss, and deformable terrain navigation. Zhang's most notable contribution is the development of a dual-master/single-slave haptic teleoperation system for hexapod robots, enabling semiautonomous bilateral control on rough terrain—a breakthrough for outdoor robotic applications. His research on predictive control for wheeled mobile robots, particularly in the presence of communication delays and data loss, has been widely cited (over 60 citations across top papers). Zhang has also pioneered collaborative transportation systems using multiple mobile manipulators, transforming force constraints into position constraints to eliminate the need for force sensors. His work on networked predictive control for multi-robot coordination has set new standards for robust, delay-tolerant systems. With papers published in high-impact venues, Zhang's contributions are essential reading for researchers in teleoperation, nonholonomic robotics, and networked control systems.
