About
Dr. Jong Won Lee is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of robotics, human-robot interaction, and assistive technologies for neurodevelopmental disorders. His primary research focuses on developing interactive robotic frameworks that deliver multi-sensory therapy for children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). In his most cited work (2016, 10 citations), Lee introduced an innovative robotic system capable of generating emotion-based gestures and facial expressions, integrated with vision and audio-based monitoring to quantify therapeutic outcomes. This framework represents a significant contribution to socially assistive robotics, offering a structured, repeatable, and engaging intervention tool that bridges engineering and clinical practice. Lee’s work stands out for its emphasis on real-time, adaptive interaction—enabling robots to respond to children’s emotional and behavioral cues during therapy sessions. By combining robotic expressiveness with quantitative monitoring, his research provides both therapeutic value and empirical rigor, paving the way for scalable, technology-driven interventions in special education and pediatric rehabilitation. His contributions are particularly notable for their potential to democratize access to specialized therapy, making him a key figure in the growing field of robot-assisted autism intervention.
