About

Zeyu Lu is a robotics researcher whose work centers on advancing tactile sensing, robotic manipulation, and human-robot interaction. His most significant contributions lie in the development of the GTac sensor system—a biomimetic tactile sensor with skin-like heterogeneous force feedback—which enables robots to simultaneously perceive normal and shear forces, much like the human hand. This foundational work has led to a series of integrated robotic platforms, including the GTac-Gripper, a reconfigurable under-actuated four-fingered gripper, and the GTac-Hand, which combines tactile sensing with extrinsic contact sensing capabilities. Collectively, these papers have garnered over 100 citations, reflecting their impact on the field. Lu has also explored deep learning for locomotion mode detection in lower limb wearable robots and interaction control for tool manipulation on deformable objects using tactile feedback. His research bridges hardware innovation and intelligent control, with applications ranging from delicate object grasping to medical procedures. Through his GTac series, Lu has established a benchmark for multimodal tactile sensing in robotics, demonstrating how bio-inspired design can enhance robotic dexterity and autonomy in real-world environments.
