About
Yeong‐Maw Hwang is a leading researcher at the intersection of robotic rehabilitation, biomedical engineering, and advanced manufacturing. His work focuses on developing intelligent assistive technologies and tissue engineering scaffolds, with key contributions in lower limb robotic orthoses and bone tissue fabrication. Notably, Hwang pioneered an integrated lower limb robotic orthosis that combines near-field electrospinning (NFES) piezoelectric sensors with fuzzy logic-based gait phase detection, enabling precise motion control and real-time adaptability for mobility assistance and rehabilitation. This system, detailed in a 2025 study (3 citations), showcases his innovative use of embedded sensors to enhance human-robot interaction. In earlier work (2006, 3 citations), Hwang advanced bone tissue engineering by fabricating porous scaffolds using a 3-D robotic system, demonstrating superior structural integrity compared to conventional particulate leaching methods. His interdisciplinary approach bridges robotics and biomechanics, earning recognition for improving rehabilitation outcomes and scaffold design. With a career spanning over two decades, Hwang’s research continues to influence assistive robotics and regenerative medicine, offering practical solutions for patients with mobility impairments and bone defects.
