About
Chen-Hua Yeow is a pioneering researcher in soft robotics, wearable assistive technologies, and human-machine interaction, whose work has fundamentally advanced how compliant robotic systems are designed, fabricated, and applied in real-world settings. His landmark 2016 paper on 3D-printed soft pneumatic actuators, amassing nearly 600 citations, revolutionized fabrication workflows by enabling direct printing of complex actuator geometries through FDM technology — dramatically reducing production time and complexity. Yeow has made especially significant contributions to rehabilitation robotics, developing a series of fabric-based and soft robotic gloves for stroke survivors and hand-impaired patients that balance clinical efficacy with comfort and wearability. His 2020 randomized controlled study integrating brain-computer interface technology with soft robotic glove rehabilitation exemplifies his commitment to translating engineering innovation into clinical practice. Beyond rehabilitation, Yeow has extended his expertise into intelligent systems, including AIoT-enabled robotic manipulators and hybrid tele-manipulation platforms. With over 2,000 combined citations across his most influential works, his research sits at the compelling intersection of materials science, biomedical engineering, and artificial intelligence, offering transformative solutions for assistive care, industrial automation, and human augmentation.
