Shane Tyler King is an American Mechanical Engineer from South Carolina, and is an Assistant Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Montana State University - Bozeman. His research interests include the design and control of prostheses.[1][2][3][4][5] and exoskeletons[6][7][8], haptic sensory augmentation[9], hybrid neuromodulation and robotic systems[10][6][7][11][12], and the stumble recovery response of prosthesis users[13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22].
Education and career
King is a 2017 graduate of North Carolina State University, where he earned his B.S. in Biomedical Engineering. He attended Vanderbilt University for graduate school, where he earned his M.S. and Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering respectively in 2021 and 2023. He began as postdoctoral researcher in Rice University in 2023 in the Department of Mechanical Engineering[23]. He has been a faculty of Montana State University - Bozeman in the Department of Electrical Engineering since 2026[24]
Recognition
King's work in classifying[25][22][21] and improving[26][19] stumble recovery response aids in the reduction of fall risk for lower limb prosthesis users[13][14]. This work led to the development of an ASTM International standard (F3578) to assess the effect of exoskeletons on fall risk due to stumbling[27][28], in which King facilitated. King was awarded Best Presentation at the Mid-South Biomechanics Conference in 2019[29] for this research.
King also holds a patent for Instrumented Clutch Device[30], issued in 2023.
Personal life
King has "been on a quest to design the perfect hot chicken recipe", resulting in him becoming a two-time runner-up at the Music City Hot Chicken Festival amateur hot chicken cooking contest[31].
