About

Xuejiao Liang is a researcher at the forefront of haptic feedback and robotic manipulation, with a primary focus on restoring proprioceptive sensation in prosthetic and robotic systems. Her most-cited work, "Skin-stretch proprioceptive feedback for a robotic gripper" (2014, 6 citations), addresses a critical gap in upper-limb prosthetics: the lack of inherent position and movement feedback. While modern prosthetics enable dexterous control, users still rely heavily on visual cues. Liang’s pioneering contribution demonstrates how skin-stretch stimulation can convey proprioceptive information—such as grip aperture and finger position—directly to the user’s skin, reducing cognitive load and improving control. This work is foundational in the field of haptic feedback, bridging the gap between robotic dexterity and natural human perception. Though early in her career, Liang’s research has already influenced subsequent studies on non-visual feedback for prosthetics and teleoperation. Her achievements highlight a commitment to making robotic and prosthetic interfaces more intuitive and embodied, with potential applications in rehabilitation, assistive technology, and human-robot interaction.
