About
Dr. Edwin Hang Tong Teo is a leading figure in the development of advanced electromechanical transducers, with a particular focus on dielectric elastomer actuators (DEAs) and their applications in soft robotics and haptic technology. His work has been instrumental in pushing the boundaries of soft actuation, most notably through the design of novel actuator configurations such as the conical DEA, which enables compact, high-performance haptic feedback devices. With over 2 citations on his recent work, Dr. Teo’s research addresses critical challenges in creating lifelike artificial muscles and responsive haptic interfaces, bridging the gap between fundamental materials science and practical engineering. His contributions have been recognized in top-tier journals and conferences, where he has demonstrated how DEAs can be tailored for rotary haptic solutions—a key step toward more immersive virtual and augmented reality experiences. By combining rigorous theoretical modeling with hands-on fabrication, Dr. Teo continues to inspire students and researchers to explore the transformative potential of soft, electrically-driven materials in next-generation robotics and human-machine interaction.
