About

Ting-Jen Yeh is a robotics researcher whose work centers on the dynamic control and balancing of mobile robotic systems, with a particular emphasis on humanoid-robot interaction and two-wheeled vehicles. His most notable contribution is the development of a control system for a robot bicycle, where a small humanoid robot is designed to pedal, balance, and steer a bicycle of comparable size—mimicking a human rider. In his highly cited 2017 paper, "Balancing control of a robot bicycle with uncertain center of gravity" (20 citations), Yeh tackled the challenge of maintaining stability despite shifting mass distributions, focusing on handlebar-based steering and balance. This work demonstrates his expertise in nonlinear control, uncertain dynamics, and mechatronic system design. Yeh’s research has practical implications for autonomous transportation, assistive robotics, and humanoid locomotion. His approach—combining theoretical control strategies with real-world hardware implementation—has made his work a reference point for researchers exploring robot-assisted mobility and two-wheeled balancing systems. Through this achievement, Yeh has established himself as a key contributor to the field of dynamic robotic control.
