About

Xuemei Jin is a leading researcher in the field of rehabilitation robotics, with a particular focus on cable-driven parallel robots for upper limb therapy. Her work addresses a critical need in stroke rehabilitation by leveraging the unique advantages of cable-driven systems—such as low moving inertia, high power efficiency, and large workspace—over conventional rigid robots. Jin’s most influential contribution is the development of a hybrid position/force control scheme using admittance control in Cartesian space for a 3-DOF planar cable-driven parallel robot (2016, 22 citations), which enables safer and more adaptive human-robot interaction during therapy. She has also explored various rehabilitation strategies for upper limb recovery (2014, 19 citations) and conducted detailed workspace analyses to optimize robot design for patient-specific needs (2014, 8 citations). Her research has been instrumental in advancing cost-effective, high-performance robotic solutions for post-stroke rehabilitation, with cumulative citations reflecting growing interest in this domain. Jin’s work continues to shape the design and control of compliant, patient-friendly robotic systems, making her a key figure in the intersection of robotics and neurorehabilitation.
