Research Experience
- Studies multi-legged robot locomotion in complex environments (e.g., rubble, leaf litter, granular media)
- Models locomotion as a stochastic process, drawing analogies to signal transmission over noisy channels
- Develops co-design coding schemes inspired by error-correcting/detecting codes for legged locomotion
- Uses morphologically tunable robophysical platforms to reconstruct rare or extinct animal locomotion behaviors
- Applies geometric mechanics to analyze body undulation during evolutionary transitions from lizard-like to snake-like forms
