About

Dr. Wan Adila Wan Sharon is a dedicated researcher in the field of rehabilitation robotics, with a primary focus on developing accessible and affordable assistive technologies for physical therapy. Her most notable contribution is the preliminary design of a robotic exoskeleton for arm rehabilitation, a low-cost, 2-degree-of-freedom system integrated with force-sensitive resistors to measure patient effort. This work, published in 2018, has garnered 4 citations and underscores her commitment to creating user-friendly devices that can be deployed in clinical or home settings. Dr. Sharon’s research addresses a critical need for scalable rehabilitation solutions, particularly for stroke survivors and individuals with upper limb impairments. By prioritizing simplicity and affordability in her exoskeleton design, she is helping to bridge the gap between advanced robotics and practical therapeutic applications. Her work reflects a broader vision of democratizing access to rehabilitation technology, making it more attainable for communities with limited resources. As she continues to refine her designs, Dr. Sharon’s contributions hold promise for improving patient outcomes and advancing the field of assistive robotics.
