About

Hang Tuah is a leading figure in the field of robotics, with a primary focus on the development of versatile, disaster-response robots. His most significant contribution is the pioneering design of a "Hexapod Robot with Manoeuvrable Wheel," a hybrid platform that combines the rough-terrain stability of a six-legged walker with the speed and efficiency of wheeled locomotion. This innovation directly addresses the critical need for robots capable of navigating the unpredictable debris and obstacles found in natural disaster zones, enabling both remote and autonomous operation. The foundational paper detailing this work has garnered 17 citations, establishing a key reference point for researchers in mobile robotics and search-and-rescue technology. By solving the fundamental trade-off between terrain adaptability and mobility speed, Tuah’s work provides a practical blueprint for next-generation rescue robots, demonstrating a clear path from conceptual design to real-world application in saving lives.
