About

Chin Boon Chng is a robotics and automation researcher whose work spans medical robotics, computer vision, and industrial automation systems. His research bridges the gap between human-operator interaction and intelligent robotic control, with a particular focus on developing practical solutions for real-world engineering challenges. His most notable contribution, "Shared Control of a Medical Robot with Haptic Guidance" (2016), has accumulated 42 citations and represents a significant advancement in human-robot collaboration within clinical settings. By integrating haptic feedback mechanisms into shared control frameworks, Chng's work enhances the safety and precision of robot-assisted medical procedures, enabling more intuitive cooperation between surgeons and robotic systems. More recently, Chng has directed his expertise toward the offshore and marine industry, developing vision-controlled robotic systems for cable binding operations aboard Floating Production Storage and Offloading (FPSO) vessels. This 2024 work demonstrates his commitment to addressing labour-intensive industrial challenges through computer vision technology, bringing intelligent automation to demanding maritime environments. Across his career, Chng exemplifies a researcher who consistently applies cutting-edge robotics and sensing technologies to high-stakes, practical domains — from operating theatres to offshore platforms — making his work highly relevant to both academic and industrial audiences.
