About
Yiwei Xiong is a rising researcher in the field of biomedical microsensing and surgical robotics, with a focus on enhancing the safety and precision of delicate ophthalmic procedures. His key research areas include fiber Bragg grating (FBG)-based micro-force sensors, temperature compensation techniques, and three-dimensional force sensing for minimally invasive surgery. Xiong’s major contribution is the development of a novel FBG-based three-dimensional micro-force sensor specifically designed for micro-forceps used in retinal microsurgery. This sensor achieves high axial force sensitivity while effectively compensating for temperature-induced errors, addressing a critical need to accurately measure tool-tissue interaction forces. By enabling real-time, precise force feedback, his work helps prevent excessive forces that can cause irreversible retinal damage or vision loss during surgery. His most-cited paper, published in 2023, has already garnered 14 citations, reflecting its immediate impact on the surgical robotics community. Xiong’s innovations represent a significant step toward safer, more reliable microsurgical instruments, with potential applications extending to other delicate procedures where force sensing is paramount.
