About
Chunquan Xu is a robotics researcher whose work spans bio-inspired soft robotics, high-speed manipulation, and multi-robot coordination. His most cited research focuses on developing a soft robotic fish using Macro Fiber Composite (MFC) smart materials for Body/Caudal Fin (BCF) propulsion, achieving a streamlined 300mm design capable of straight and turning motion. He has also made significant contributions to pitch motion control in 3D soft bionic fish through centroid adjustment. In parallel, Xu has advanced high-speed dynamic manipulation, notably creating a golf swing robot that mimics human motion using a target dynamics-based control scheme, mapping the robot to a harmonic oscillator for precise motion planning. His work on cooperative control of mobile manipulators transporting objects on slopes demonstrates his versatility in multi-robot systems. With over 60 total citations across his top papers, Xu’s research has practical applications in underwater exploration, sports automation, and construction waste sorting. His innovative use of smart materials and dynamic control strategies has established him as a notable figure in soft robotics and intelligent manipulation systems.
