About

Mulyoto Pangestu is a researcher specializing in micro-robotic cell injection training, virtual reality simulation, and haptic technology. His work addresses a critical challenge in biomedical practice: the lengthy and expensive training required for human bio-operators to master the delicate skill of micro-robotic cell injection, a procedure demanding precise micropipette manipulation at the microscopic scale. Pangestu has made significant contributions by developing and evaluating innovative virtual reality training environments that incorporate haptic feedback, allowing trainees to practice and refine their techniques in immersive, risk-free simulated settings. His most cited work, a 2017 evaluation of a virtual reality micro-robotic cell injection training system, demonstrates the practical viability of these approaches, accumulating 12 citations, while his earlier haptic VR training environment study from 2015 has garnered 9 citations. Notably, Pangestu has also explored large-scale VR training configurations utilizing multi-screen display systems, broadening the accessibility and realism of simulation-based education. Collectively, his research offers a compelling roadmap for modernizing biomanipulation training, reducing reliance on traditional, resource-intensive methods while improving learner outcomes in cutting-edge biomedical procedures.
