About
Gu Chengpeng is a robotics researcher specializing in innovative locomotion systems for extreme planetary environments. His primary research areas include mobile robotics, bio-inspired locomotion, and space exploration technologies. His most significant contribution is the design and analysis of a novel crawling-and-rolling robot tailored for the lunar extreme terrain, which seamlessly integrates two distinct motion modes—crawling for precise, stable traversal and rolling for rapid, energy-efficient movement across rugged landscapes. This work, published in 2021, has garnered 3 citations and demonstrates his ability to address critical challenges in planetary surface mobility. By developing a six-legged robot capable of morphological transformation, Gu established kinematic models for straight-line and in-situ turning gaits during crawling, and derived constraints for maximum climbing angle and obstacle height in rolling mode. His validation through ADAMS simulations and physical prototype testing in laboratory settings underscores his hands-on engineering approach. Gu’s research holds promise for future lunar missions, offering a versatile platform that balances speed and adaptability, marking him as an emerging contributor to space robotics.
