About

Zhibin Xue is a leading researcher in the field of bio-inspired robotics and multi-agent systems, with a primary focus on aquatic and swarm robotics. His work bridges the gap between biological locomotion and autonomous underwater vehicles, particularly through the development of robotic dolphins. Xue’s most significant contribution is his pioneering research on cooperative target tracking using dual robotic dolphin systems, where he proposed a modified rapidly exploring random tree (RRT)-based path planner and behavior-based tracking strategy—a novel approach that has garnered 15 citations. His foundational work on formation control of unmanned autonomous vehicles, including geometric pattern formation for ground, undersea, and aerial agents, has been cited 14 times and remains influential in swarm dynamics. Xue has also advanced underwater localization and environment mapping using wireless robots (21 citations), demonstrating his impact on practical navigation challenges. His recent exploration of maneuverability modeling for 3D robotic dolphins, including C-turning and flapping propulsion, underscores his commitment to enhancing environmental monitoring capabilities. With a career spanning over a decade, Xue’s research continues to inspire innovations in autonomous systems and cooperative robotics.
