About
Wei Yang Ho is a robotics researcher specializing in cable-driven parallel robots (CDPRs), haptic interaction, and dynamic trajectory control. His work focuses on enabling intuitive human-robot collaboration through admittance control, allowing users to physically interact with CDPRs in a safe and responsive manner. His foundational paper, "Haptic Interaction with a Cable-Driven Parallel Robot Using Admittance Control" (2014, 20 citations), introduced novel methods for force-based interaction that have influenced subsequent research in haptic feedback systems. Ho further advanced the field by exploring the entertainment and amusement potential of CDPRs in "Extending dynamic trajectories of cable-driven parallel robots as a novel robotic roller coaster" (2022, 9 citations), where he developed mathematical frameworks to maintain cable tension during high-speed, dynamic maneuvers—a critical challenge for suspended CDPRs. This work demonstrates his ability to bridge theoretical mechanics with real-world applications, pushing the boundaries of what these lightweight, large-workspace robots can achieve. Ho’s contributions are particularly notable for their emphasis on safety and user experience, making him a key figure in the development of interactive and dynamic cable-robot systems.
