About

Yun Hol Chan is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of biomedical engineering and soft robotics, with a primary focus on developing innovative rehabilitation technologies for stroke patients. His major contributions center on kirigami-inspired flexible and soft anthropomorphic robotic hands, a novel approach that leverages the ancient art of paper cutting to create adaptable, lightweight exoskeletal systems. Chan’s work demonstrates how these kirigami structures can serve as effective rehabilitation tools, offering a promising alternative to traditional rigid hand exoskeletons. His most cited papers, including "Design evolution and pilot study for a kirigami-inspired flexible and soft anthropomorphic robotic hand" and "Soft Tactile Sensors for Rehabilitation Robotic Hand with 3D Printed Folds" (each with 11 citations), validate the potential of these systems in clinical settings. Additionally, his 2022 study on "Printable Kirigami-inspired Flexible and Soft Anthropomorphic Robotic Hand" advances the field by integrating 3D printing for customizable, low-cost fabrication. Chan’s work is notable for bridging traditional craftsmanship with cutting-edge robotics, offering scalable solutions for personalized rehabilitation. His research continues to inspire new directions in assistive technology, making soft robotics more accessible and effective for patient recovery.
