About
Wing-Ting Wong is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of robotics, computer vision, and developmental psychology, with a primary focus on leveraging technology for early autism screening. Her most notable contribution is the development of a scalable, robot-assisted screening tool using the social robot HUMANE, which employs computer vision and gaze-recognition technology to detect atypical eye-gaze patterns in children—a key early marker of autism spectrum disorder. This work, published in a 2024 cross-sectional exploratory study, has already garnered 4 citations, signaling its immediate relevance and potential for real-world clinical impact. By enabling objective, reproducible screening through a child-friendly robotic interface, Wong's research addresses critical gaps in early diagnosis, particularly in underserved communities. Her innovative approach not only advances assistive robotics but also offers a promising pathway toward reducing diagnostic delays. As a rising figure in human-robot interaction, Wong's work exemplifies how interdisciplinary engineering can transform pediatric healthcare, making her a researcher to watch in the evolving field of socially assistive technology.
