About

Jey Won is a pioneering researcher in the intersection of rapid prototyping and robotic systems, with foundational contributions that helped shape how engineers approach the fabrication of complex mechanical assemblies. Won's most influential work centers on applying rapid prototyping techniques — particularly Stereolithography (SLA) and Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) — to manufacture non-assembly robotic mechanisms directly, eliminating the need for traditional multi-part assembly processes. His landmark 2000 paper on non-assembly mechanisms and robotic systems has garnered 102 citations, establishing him as a key voice in this emerging field. Building on this, Won extended his research to the fabrication of robotic hands and broader robotic systems, demonstrating practical applications of these manufacturing techniques in creating functional, mechanically sophisticated prototypes. Collaborating with institutions such as Rutgers University, his work leveraged cutting-edge equipment to push the boundaries of what rapid prototyping could achieve in robotics. Across his publications, Won has accumulated over 170 citations, reflecting the lasting influence of his contributions on researchers and engineers working at the crossroads of advanced manufacturing, mechanical design, and robotics.
