About
Shan-Ming Chang’s research lies at the intersection of rehabilitation robotics and human–machine interaction, with a particular focus on restoring motor function through innovative therapeutic technologies. His most cited work, “Development of an evaluation function for eye-hand coordination robotic therapy” (2011, 7 citations), builds on foundational ideas presented at ICORR 2007. In this line of research, Chang pioneered a robotic mapping system that links a haptic user interface to a virtual environment, designed to improve eye-hand coordination in children with motor impairments. By developing and refining an evaluation function for this therapy, he provided a quantitative framework to assess and enhance patient progress—a critical step toward personalized, data-driven rehabilitation. Chang’s contributions are notable for bridging engineering precision with clinical need, offering a scalable approach to robotic therapy that has informed subsequent work in assistive technologies. His research underscores the potential of haptic feedback and virtual reality to transform pediatric rehabilitation, making therapy more engaging, measurable, and effective.
