About
Marwan Hamze is a leading researcher in humanoid robotics, focusing on whole-body multi-contact motion control and tactile-based manipulation. His work addresses the critical challenge of enabling humanoid robots to operate robustly in confined and unstructured environments by leveraging contacts not only at the hands and feet but also at intermediate limb areas like knees and elbows. His most-cited paper (2024, 9 citations) introduces a novel control method that integrates distributed tactile sensors to achieve stable, whole-body multi-contact motion, significantly expanding the operational capabilities of humanoids. Building on this, his 2025 paper (3 citations) pioneers a deep imitation learning framework that incorporates tactile modality, enabling humanoid robots to perform complex manipulation tasks—such as pushing or carrying objects—while maintaining stability through whole-body contact. This approach reduces computational costs and addresses the difficulty of measuring broad-area contact. Hamze’s work is pivotal for advancing humanoid robots into real-world applications like disaster response, industrial maintenance, and home assistance, where safe and adaptive physical interaction is essential.
