About
Soah Park is a rising leader in the field of soft wearable robotics, with a focused mission to bridge the gap between high-performance assistive technology and genuine user comfort. Her research centers on designing and evaluating clothing-integrated robotic systems for both gait assistance and industrial manual handling. Park’s major contributions include the development of novel wearable suit platforms and robotic gloves that prioritize “wearability”—a concept she rigorously quantifies using electroencephalogram (EEG) data and user satisfaction metrics. Her 2024 study on gait-assistive soft robots, which has already garnered 7 citations, was among the first to systematically assess the neural and subjective comfort of such devices. In 2025, she advanced the field with a fabric-integrated glove employing a twisted string actuator, achieving a critical balance between lightweight design and sufficient force generation for demanding tasks. Park’s work directly addresses the real-world challenges of muscle fatigue and work efficiency in logistics and industrial settings, with her glove designs showing promise in preventing cumulative strain injuries. Her growing body of work—accumulating over 20 citations in just two years—positions her as a key innovator in making wearable robots practical and pleasant for daily use.
