About

Haiqiang Qi is a leading innovator in the field of flexible tactile sensing and electronic skin (e-skin) technologies, with a primary focus on developing highly sensitive, multi-dimensional force sensors for robotic applications. His most impactful work introduces a novel capacitive three-dimensional (3D) force tactile sensor that achieves synergistic perception of both normal and tangential forces—a critical breakthrough for robotic grasping and fine manipulation. This design, detailed in his highly cited 2020 paper (64 citations), addresses a long-standing challenge in e-skin development by enabling robots to sense complex contact interactions with unprecedented accuracy. Qi’s contributions have significantly advanced the practical deployment of flexible sensors in soft robotics and human-machine interfaces, bridging the gap between theoretical sensing models and real-world dexterous manipulation. His research is widely recognized for its innovative structural design and high sensitivity, making it a foundational reference for engineers and scientists working on next-generation haptic systems. Through his work, Qi continues to shape the future of intelligent robotics and tactile perception.
