About

Yingxuan Bu is a rising researcher in the fields of soft robotics and flexible sensing technology, with a focus on the design and optimization of bio-inspired, shape-adaptive systems. Her work bridges the gap between mechanical structure and sensor performance, particularly through the innovative use of kirigami-inspired architectures and porous materials. Bu’s most-cited paper, “Surface curvature regulation of 3D kirigami soft gripper” (2025, 4 citations), introduces a novel approach to controlling gripper curvature for delicate object manipulation—a key challenge in soft robotics. Her earlier study, “Investigating the impact of geometric dimensions on the sensitivity of porous flexible capacitive pressure sensors” (2024, 1 citation), addresses a critical gap in understanding how sensor geometry influences performance, offering design guidelines for high-sensitivity pressure sensors used in smart manufacturing and robotic AI. Although early in her career, Bu’s work demonstrates a clear trajectory toward practical, high-impact applications in human-machine interaction and adaptive robotics. Her contributions are already shaping the next generation of flexible, sensitive, and mechanically intelligent systems.
