About
Pei-Chong Tang is a leading figure in the development of safe, cost-effective collaborative robotics, with a primary focus on human-machine interaction and sensorless control systems. His groundbreaking work addresses the critical challenge of balancing operator safety with affordability in robot arm design. Tang’s most influential contribution is the development of a virtual force sensor for low-cost collaborative robots, a concept detailed in his 2019 paper (38 citations), which eliminates the need for expensive physical force sensors while still meeting stringent safety standards. He further advanced the field with a sensorless, low-gain brushless DC motor controller (21 citations), employing a simplified dynamic force compensator to enable safe, responsive operation using low-resolution sensors. By pioneering these sensorless and virtual sensing techniques, Tang has significantly reduced production costs for service robots, making safe human-machine collaboration more accessible. His work is essential reading for researchers and engineers seeking to design affordable, compliant, and safe robotic systems for real-world applications.
