About
Wei-Hao Mou is a leading researcher in assistive robotics, with a primary focus on developing intelligent mobility aids for vulnerable populations, particularly elderly individuals and patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD). His most significant contributions center on the design and implementation of context-aware robotic walkers that actively respond to users’ needs, enhancing safety and quality of life. Mou pioneered the CAIROW (Context-aware Assisted Interactive Robotic Walker), recognized as the first active robotic walker specifically engineered for PD patients. This system uses advanced sensors and hidden Markov models to detect abnormal gaits and balance loss, providing real-time, adaptive support to prevent falls. His foundational work, including the robotic walker "Johnnie" for elderly mobility, has garnered substantial attention, with his top-cited paper accumulating 44 citations. Collectively, his research has amassed nearly 100 citations, underscoring its impact on rehabilitation engineering and human-robot interaction. By bridging mechanical design, sensor fusion, and clinical application, Mou’s work directly addresses critical challenges in aging and neurodegenerative care, offering practical, life-enhancing solutions that have influenced both academic research and assistive technology development.
