About

Zan Wenpei is a leading researcher in swarm robotics, with a primary focus on distributed self-assembly and motion-chain methods for large-scale robotic systems. Their most-cited work, "Distributed Self-assembly Method Based on Motion-chain for Swarm Robotics" (2020), introduces a novel approach enabling modular, lattice-based robots to autonomously reconfigure into task-specific shapes. By employing a "layer-by-layer stripping and filling" strategy, Zan transforms global assembly goals into local interactions among edge-layer robots, solving the critical "who moves first" coordination problem. This work has garnered 3 citations and lays the foundation for scalable, flexible robotic systems capable of operating in unstructured environments. Zan’s contributions are pivotal for advancing autonomous construction, search-and-rescue, and adaptive manufacturing, where robot collectives must self-organize without central control. Their research bridges theoretical distributed algorithms with practical swarm behaviors, offering a blueprint for future resilient, morphing robot teams.
