About

Yiting Zhao is a robotics researcher whose work focuses on advancing assistive and service robotics, particularly for human-robot interaction and autonomous navigation. Their key research areas include quadrupedal guide robots, physical human-robot interaction, and indoor mobile service robots. Zhao’s major contributions include developing a human-robot physical interaction system for quadruped guide robots using IMU data, addressing the critical challenge of safe and intuitive physical guidance for visually impaired users. They also proposed an indoor top mobile service robot based on an improved RRT algorithm, which simplifies navigation by avoiding complex ground mapping and obstacle avoidance planning through a novel lifting truss platform and manipulator design. While their most-cited papers have garnered 2 citations each, these works represent foundational steps in practical assistive robotics. Zhao’s research demonstrates a commitment to creating accessible, real-world robotic solutions that enhance mobility and independence for elderly and visually impaired individuals, contributing to the growing field of socially assistive robotics.
