Innovation in Robotics Knows No Bounds

Creating and developing a prosthetic hand for children born without hand limb is one of my latest projects at the faculty.

Our students and us lecturers (myself and en Mahasan) were quite inspired by this inventor from Taiping, Perak who loves to be regarded as Pak Su Delta.
