About

Chih-Lung Lin is a researcher working at the intersection of flexible electronics, robotics, and sensor technology. His work focuses on developing advanced sensing systems designed to replicate human sensory capabilities in robotic platforms, particularly through the creation of artificial skin technologies. Lin's most notable contributions lie in the design and fabrication of flexible sensing arrays that integrate both temperature and tactile sensing capabilities. His 2008 work introduced an innovative 8×8 flexible sensing array utilizing pressure conductive rubber for tactile detection alongside discrete temperature sensor chips, laying important groundwork for multifunctional robotic skin systems. Building on this foundation, his 2010 research advanced the field through the development of capacitive tactile sensing arrays featuring a distinctive dual sensing electrode and floating electrode architecture, improving reliability and sensitivity for humanoid robot applications. While Lin's citation counts remain modest — with his leading works accumulating 4 and 3 citations respectively — his research addresses a genuinely challenging and consequential problem in robotics engineering: enabling machines to perceive and interact with their physical environment with greater nuance and safety. His contributions represent meaningful early-stage progress in flexible sensor technology, a field with growing importance across robotics, prosthetics, and human-machine interaction research.
