About

Cheng-Leong Ng is a researcher specializing in multi-robot systems and autonomous navigation in dynamic environments. His work focuses on two core challenges: enabling robots to safely avoid moving obstacles and maintaining reliable leader-following coordination when visual tracking is temporarily lost. Ng’s most influential contribution is the Dynamic Window Approach with Collision Suppression Cone (DWA-CSC), which introduces a novel geometric method for predicting and suppressing collisions with moving obstacles in partially known spaces. This work has garnered 6 citations and addresses a critical gap in real-time robot motion planning. In multi-robot systems, Ng pioneered probabilistic trajectory estimation techniques that allow follower robots to accurately predict a leader’s path even during vision dropouts caused by occlusion, lighting changes, or motion blur. His leader-following papers (2016, 2017) have accumulated 9 citations combined, demonstrating their relevance to robust multi-robot coordination. Ng’s research is particularly valuable for applications in warehouse logistics, search-and-rescue, and autonomous convoy operations, where reliable robot teamwork and obstacle avoidance are essential. His work bridges probabilistic estimation and control theory to create practical, resilient robotic systems.
