About
Shuxiang Su is a leading roboticist specializing in amphibious and spherical robotics, with a focus on hybrid locomotion, underwater motion control, and autonomous navigation. Their most significant contribution is the development of the Amphibious Spherical Robot (ASR) series, particularly the ASR-III and ASR-IV, which integrate wheel-legged mechanisms with multi-vectored water-jet thrusters for seamless land-to-water transitions. Su’s work on fuzzy PID control algorithms (52 citations) and Kalman filter-based navigation systems (11 citations) has advanced precise 3D underwater motion and low-cost inertial navigation for autonomous underwater vehicles. Their research also includes vision-based systems for underwater pipeline tracking and binocular camera docking, enabling autonomous recovery and charging. With over 200 citations across their top papers, Su’s innovations in hybrid locomotion evaluation (72 citations) and thruster hydrodynamic analysis have set benchmarks in amphibious robotics. Their work is pivotal for applications in environmental monitoring, underwater inspection, and search-and-rescue missions, making Su a key figure in the evolution of versatile, multi-terrain robotic platforms.
