CUHK Legged Robot Lab

Welcome to the CUHK Legged Robot Lab (CUHK-LRL) website!

We are one of the research groups in the Department of Mechanical and Automation Engineering at The Chinese University of Hong Kong, under the supervision of Prof. Liu Yun-Hui. We focus on advancing the real-world deployment of legged robots through theoretical and experimental research. Specifically, our research includes: 1) Robust and precise locomotion, 2) Dexterous and whole-body coordinated loco-manipulation, 3) Environment-aware perception and navigation, and 4) Safe actuator and mechanical system design.

We are actively seeking self-motivated Ph.D. applicants for Fall 2027 with relevant experience in related research areas. We also have multiple openings for Research Assistants (RAs) and engineers. If you are interested in joining our lab, please feel free to contact us via email at cuhksiriusteamlegged@gmail.com.
