Eric Li Zhiqiang / 李志强

Eric Li Zhiqiang is the founder and CEO of Yimu Technology / 一目科技 and the guest in 从会跳舞到有感知，触觉是机器人通往智能的门票吗？｜ S10E19. The source describes his background as spanning computer science, environmental engineering, AI applications, microfluidic sensing, and silicon-photonics sensing chips.

In the episode, Eric argues that touch is necessary for Embodied AI because vision cannot fully solve contact precision, occlusion, or force control. His central synthesis is that robot movement has advanced faster than dexterous hands and physical understanding, so Tactile Sensing should become part of the robot model stack through Optical Tactile Sensing, TouchNet, and Tactile Transformer Encoder.
