About

Yingqi Jia is a researcher specializing in robotics, acoustic positioning, and nondestructive inspection technologies for industrial applications. Their most notable contribution is the development of a novel acoustic positioning method for online inspection robots operating within vertical storage tanks, as detailed in their 2019 paper, which has garnered 6 citations. This work addresses a critical challenge in industrial robotics—accurate spatial localization in confined, GPS-denied environments—by designing a system using two acoustic signal emitters and two receivers to triangulate robot position. Jia’s approach enhances the reliability of automated tank inspections, reducing human risk and improving maintenance efficiency. The research bridges robotics, signal processing, and industrial safety, offering practical solutions for the oil, gas, and chemical sectors. With a focus on real-world deployment, Jia’s contributions support the advancement of autonomous inspection systems, making their work valuable for engineers and researchers in field robotics and structural health monitoring.
