About
Huiming Xing is a prominent robotics researcher whose work sits at the dynamic intersection of bio-inspired robotics, underwater autonomy, and multi-sensor fusion systems. His research has made significant strides in the design, modeling, and control of amphibious spherical robots — compact, versatile machines capable of navigating both aquatic and terrestrial environments. Xing's development of the ASR-III and subsequent turtle-inspired amphibious spherical robots introduced innovative hybrid locomotion systems combining wheel-legged mechanisms with vectored water-jet propulsion, earning widespread recognition with over 70 citations each. His contributions to hydrodynamic modeling of water-jet thrusters and advanced control strategies — including Fuzzy PID, Extended Kalman Filtering, and Model Predictive Control — have substantially advanced the precision and autonomy of miniature underwater robots. Xing has also tackled the challenging problem of localization in GPS-denied underwater environments, proposing multi-sensor fusion architectures that leverage RGB-D cameras and IMUs for robust cooperative positioning. With a portfolio accumulating over 550 citations, his work extends even into medical robotics, evidenced by novel noncontact detection methods for endovascular surgery systems, demonstrating an impressive breadth of engineering impact.
