Yuemin Mao 毛悦旻

I am a Ph.D. student at the Robotics Institute, Carnegie Mellon University, advised by Prof. Jeffrey Ichnowski. My research focuses on leveraging acoustic (vibro-tactile) sensing to enhance performance in dynamic and contact-rich manipulation tasks.

I received my B.S. in Mechanical Engineering and Robotics at Carnegie Mellon University in 2023. During my undergraduate years, I was fortunate to work with Prof. Matthew T. Mason on extrinsic dexterous manipulation, an experience that motivated me to push the boundaries of robotic manipulation through a deeper understanding of physics and dynamics.
