About
Zhiying Wang is a leading researcher in bio-inspired robotics and autonomous legged locomotion, with a focus on multi-legged systems that can traverse complex, unstructured terrains. Her work has fundamentally advanced the design and control of hexapod and quadruped robots, particularly through the application of central pattern generators (CPGs) for biologically plausible gait planning. Wang’s most cited paper, “Mobility analysis of the typical gait of a radial symmetrical six-legged robot” (2011, 76 citations), along with her foundational study “Locomotion Analysis of Hexapod Robot” (2010, 68 citations), established key principles for stable, adaptive walking in radial symmetrical designs. She has also made significant contributions to space robotics, including dynamic modeling of self-reconfigurable multi-arm systems (2013, 14 citations) and methods for identifying complete inertia parameters of space robots (2015). More recently, Wang has integrated environmental awareness systems with legged robots, enabling autonomous navigation, object recognition, and leader-following in outdoor settings (2022, 13 citations). Her work bridges theoretical modeling and practical experimentation, with simulations and real-world validations that have shaped the next generation of resilient, autonomous robotic platforms.
