About

Guozhao Wei is a researcher in the field of soft robotics and tactile sensing, with a focus on developing novel optical fiber-based sensors for robotic perception. His major contributions lie in the design and fabrication of flexible, high-sensitivity force and pressure sensors using fiber Bragg gratings (FBG) and Fabry-Perot micro-cavities. Notably, his work on a flexible force sensor based on spheroidal Fabry-Perot micro-cavities (2018, 12 citations) introduced a compact, deformable structure capable of precise force detection. He further advanced tactile sensing with a two-range tactile sensor integrated in three-layer elastomer (2021, 11 citations), which enables robots to perceive both subtle pressures and larger forces, enhancing adaptability in manipulation tasks. Wei also developed a biomimetic whisker system using FBG (2018, 7 citations), allowing robots to recognize object shape and texture through sweeping motions—a bio-inspired approach to environmental exploration. His research bridges optical sensing and soft robotics, offering durable, high-resolution solutions for robotic touch. With cumulative citations reflecting growing interest, Wei’s work is foundational for next-generation tactile systems in human-robot interaction and autonomous exploration.
