About
Andreas Richter is a researcher at the forefront of advanced manufacturing and human-robot interaction, with key contributions spanning wire arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) and flexible tactile sensing. His most cited work, "Properties oriented WAAM—microstructural and geometrical control in WAAM of low-alloy steel" (2023, 15 citations), addresses critical challenges in industrial additive manufacturing by developing methods to precisely control both the geometry and microstructure of WAAM components, enabling more reliable production of low-alloy steel parts. This work is pivotal for transitioning WAAM from research to industrial application, particularly in robotics and automation. Richter also pioneers innovations in safe human-robot interaction through his 2025 paper on "Robust, low-cost, and stretchable matrix tactile sensor array with anti-ghosting capabilities" (1 citation), which introduces a practical, scalable solution for equipping home and care robots with tactile sensing—a key enabler for reducing injury risks during physical human-robot collaboration. By combining expertise in metallurgical process control with sensor technology, Richter bridges the gap between manufacturing precision and interactive robotics, making him a notable figure in both fields.
