Dr Yeong Che Fai is currently a senior lecturer at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering, UTM. He graduated with PhD in Bioengineering from Imperial College London, in 2010. He has been teaching the microcontroller subject since 2003, and has experience with different types of microcontroller including ATMEL, Microchip PIC, Motorola, Philips and Arduino. His name is well-associated with robotics in Malaysia as he has participated and won many invention competitions nationally and internationally. Recently, he has won World Invention Award, Diamond Award for commercialization and Gold Medal at British Invention Show 2013 in London. He also won 4 awards at Korean Inventor Award Festival 2013. He has also guided a team to win MyInovasi 2012 competition worth RM50,000 where the invention is Robot Rehabilitation. He also has won First Prize two years back to back (2011 and 2012) in Innopitch Competition organised by ICC, UTM. Both the pitching contents are related to embedded system. He also won the Best Performance in the Innopitch Competition 2012 that won him a trip to California, USA. He has been team instructor and team advisor for UTM Robocon team for 8 years. Dr Yeong has led the UTM/ Malaysian Robocon team to win national champion titles and represented Malaysia in the Asia-Pacific Robot contest in Thailand (2003), Korea (2004), China (2005), Malaysia (2006), Thailand (2011) and recently Hong Kong (2012). He has also won champion titles in national Robot Climb (2002 & 2004), Robot Grab (2004) and Robot Partner (2004) competitions. Dr Yeong also led several teams to Philips Young Inventors’ Challenge competition and won the competition two years in a row in 2004 and 2005. All winning inventions were gadgets that utilized microcontroller. He is managing more than RM1.5 million fund for research, pre-seed and commercialization including L2M Fund, Cradle Fund, UTM GUP Fund, etc. Dr Yeong also has a UTM spin-off Company (http://www.dfautomation.com) to commercialize his research work. In short, Dr Yeong has practical experiences incorporating microcontroller for various applications ranging from simple to advanced embedded system for commercialization purposes. |
