About
Xiaohong Chen is a leading roboticist whose research spans search and rescue robotics, medical robotics, and bio-inspired locomotion. Chen’s most impactful work includes the development of an optional passive/active transformable wheel-legged mobility concept for search and rescue robots (94 citations), which has significantly advanced the adaptability of robots in disaster scenarios. In medical robotics, Chen’s comprehensive review of robotic systems for bone fracture reduction surgery (80 citations) has become a key reference, highlighting the precision and radiation-reducing benefits of robotic assistance. Chen also pioneered CPG-based gait generation for hexapod robots (47 citations), enabling smooth transitions between multi-mode gaits, and developed a pneumatic variable stiffness actuator (45 citations) that enhances robotic joint efficiency and impact resistance. Further contributions include a deformable bird-inspired perching mechanism for UAVs (26 citations) and a single-actuator continuous hopping robot (19 citations). With over 400 total citations, Chen’s work is widely recognized for its practical impact on robot design and control, particularly in unstructured environments. Chen’s research continues to push the boundaries of robotic mobility, actuation, and medical applications.
