About

Wee Chen Gan is a researcher at the forefront of soft robotics and flexible electronics, with a primary focus on developing advanced tactile sensing systems. His major contributions center on the design and fabrication of highly elastic, multi-layered capacitive sensor arrays using carbon black/elastomer composites. Notably, his 2019 work introduced a robust, simple fabrication technique that enables seamless integration of these sensors into soft robotic platforms, achieving both high elasticity and sensitivity. Building on this, his 2020 paper demonstrated a soft, flexible sensor array using carbon black pillars for object recognition via pressure mapping, a key step toward intelligent tactile perception. With over 60 combined citations, Gan’s work has significantly advanced the field of soft haptics, providing scalable solutions for pressure/force mapping in deformable systems. His achievements include pioneering fabrication methods that balance mechanical compliance with sensing performance, making his sensors ideal for applications in human-robot interaction, wearable devices, and biomedical monitoring. Gan’s research continues to shape how soft robots perceive and interact with their environment.
