About
Nur Diyana Kamarudin is a researcher dedicated to leveraging robotics and assistive technology to support children with special needs, particularly in Malaysia. Her key research areas include human-robot interaction, special education, and sustainable technology solutions for social development. Her most notable contribution is the "Robo therapist" project, which introduces a sustainable approach to teaching basic facial expressions to special needs children who struggle with interpreting social cues and maintaining social gaze. This work addresses a critical gap in social interaction skills, offering an accessible, technology-driven intervention. Although her most-cited paper has garnered 3 citations, the impact of her research lies in its practical, community-focused application—providing a scalable model for using robots as therapeutic tools in under-resourced settings. Kamarudin’s work exemplifies how affordable robotics can bridge developmental gaps, making her a key figure in the intersection of assistive technology and inclusive education in Southeast Asia.
