About
Chi Wai is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of assistive robotics, brain–computer interfaces (BCIs), and deep learning. His work focuses on developing intuitive, autonomous service robots that empower users with limited communication skills—a population often underserved by traditional human-robot interaction systems. Wai’s major contributions include the design of a robotic service assistant that integrates flexible goal formulation with deep-learning-based BCI control, enabling users to command robots through thought alone. His most-cited paper (2019, 49 citations) demonstrates this breakthrough, while his foundational 2017 study (23 citations) laid the groundwork for mobile robotic assistants tailored to non-verbal users. By combining autonomous navigation with neural decoding, Wai has advanced the feasibility of real-world BCI-controlled robotics, moving beyond laboratory prototypes toward practical, user-friendly systems. His 2018 work (7 citations) further refined intelligent goal formulation, reducing cognitive load on users. With a growing citation record, Wai’s research is shaping the future of inclusive assistive technology, offering a compelling vision of robots that respond not just to touch or voice, but to intention itself.
