About

Dr. Sang Min Won is pioneering the next generation of human-machine interfaces, with a research focus on flexible electronics, soft robotics, and wearable sensory systems. His most impactful work includes developing ultra-thin silicon-based flexible electronics (37 citations) and a wirelessly programmable, skin-integrated thermo-haptic stimulator for virtual reality (35 citations), which recreates realistic sensations of heat and touch for immersive VR experiences. Dr. Won has also advanced the mechanics of encapsulated 3D structures for simultaneous pressure and shear stress sensing (20 citations), a critical capability for prosthetic and robotic applications. His recent innovations in decoupled sensory signal monitoring (15 citations) further enhance real-time health tracking and AR/VR interfaces. Notably, his work on reprogrammable, recyclable origami robots controlled by magnetic fields (15 citations) demonstrates a creative fusion of sustainable materials and wireless actuation. With a growing citation record and a clear trajectory toward integrating soft, flexible systems with digital environments, Dr. Won is establishing himself as a leading voice in wearable technology and interactive robotics.
