About

Dr. Khor Hong Weng is a dedicated researcher in robotics and mechatronics engineering, with a primary focus on the design and development of educational robotic systems. His most cited work, "Design And Development Of A 4–Dof Scara Robot For Educational Purposes" (2012, 8 citations), addresses a critical gap in affordable, accessible robotics for higher education. Recognizing that most commercially available robots are industrial-grade and prohibitively expensive, Dr. Khor engineered a low-cost, four-degree-of-freedom SCARA robot tailored specifically for classroom and laboratory use. This contribution has enabled institutions to integrate hands-on robotics training without prohibitive financial barriers, fostering practical learning in automation and control. His research underscores the importance of bridging theoretical knowledge with real-world application, making robotics education more inclusive. With a citation count reflecting the niche but vital impact of his work, Dr. Khor continues to influence curriculum development and inspire future engineers. His dedication to democratizing technology through practical, educational robotics stands as a testament to his commitment to advancing engineering pedagogy in Malaysia and beyond.
