About
Yili Fu is a robotics researcher whose work centers on human-robot interaction, teleoperation systems, and intelligent control for mobile and assistive robots. Among Fu's notable contributions is the development of a non-contact impedance control framework for mobile robot teleoperation, which addresses the critical challenge of dynamic obstacle avoidance in unknown environments. By modeling the spatial relationship between a robot and surrounding obstacles as a virtual repulsive force — derived from distance and approaching velocity — Fu's approach enables safer, more responsive navigation without physical contact, a meaningful advance for real-world deployment scenarios. This work, published in 2014 and accumulating 6 citations, reflects Fu's broader commitment to bridging theoretical control methods with practical robotic applications. Fu's research contributes to the growing field of autonomous and semi-autonomous robotics, particularly in contexts where human operators must collaborate with robots in unpredictable or hazardous settings. For students and researchers exploring teleoperation, impedance control, or human-robot collaboration, Fu's work offers foundational insights into designing control architectures that are both robust and intuitively responsive to dynamic environmental conditions.
