UM’s Micro‑ and Nano‑Robot Research Ranks Among World’s Best
The University of Macau (UM) and The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU) have recently established the first jointly funded laboratory between Macau and Hong Kong — the Joint Laboratory of Robotics and Embodied Intelligence — and simultaneously launched a dual doctoral degree programme for joint PhD student training. This groundbreaking collaboration not only marks a new breakthrough in scientific research and talent cultivation between the two regions, but also serves as a significant recognition and affirmation of UM’s long-term dedication and outstanding achievements in the field of robotics. At the same time, the University’s research has entered a new phase, with its recent accomplishments in micro/nano robotics technology gaining international acclaim, firmly placing its research capabilities among the world’s top tier.
According to the annual academic performance statistics from two major international authoritative databases, Scopus and Web of Science, UM has demonstrated strong competitiveness in the fields of micro/nano robotics and micro/nano manipulation, publishing over 90 high-level research papers. This places UM among the top institutions in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, within the first tier in China, and in the global top 50. In the core specialized area of micro/nano positioning and micro-grippers, UM has shown the strength of a “dominant champion,” fully reflecting its core research capabilities and world-class academic influence in the field of micro-robotics.
In addition to its advantage in the quantity of papers, UM has also achieved fruitful results in the publication of high-quality papers. In the field of micro/nano robotics, UM has published three papers in Science Robotics and eight papers in IEEE Transactions on Robotics, demonstrating its research capacity to consistently contribute original achievements in top-tier platforms.
In recent years, UM has continuously strengthened its foundation in robotics research and actively supported the collaborative development of robotics science and the cultivation of high-end talent in the Greater Bay Area. Relying on platforms such as the Faculty of Science and Technology, the State Key Laboratory of Internet of Things for Smart City, and the State Key Laboratory of Analog and Mixed-Signal VLSI, UM has assembled a high-level research team. It has made continuous progress in theoretical exploration, technological innovation, and practical application, with research outcomes widely applied in fields such as intelligent manufacturing, precision medicine, and autonomous driving. In the latest international authoritative statistics, UM has performed excellently in several sub-fields, including micro/nano robotics, micro-manipulation, and micro/nano positioning, further establishing its position as a top-tier research institution in the global robotics academic community, particularly in the field of micro/nano robotics.
These research achievements reflect UM’s long-term dedication and strategic布局 (layout) in the field of micro/nano robotics. In the future, UM will continue to leverage the scientific and technological development advantages of the Greater Bay Area, deepen core technology research, consolidate and expand its globally leading research status, and contribute “UM Wisdom” to promoting innovation and industrial development in micro/nano robotics technology for the Greater Bay Area and the world.
澳大微納機器人技術研究躋身全球前列
澳門大學與香港理工大學近日成立首個港澳兩地共同資助的聯合實驗室—“機器人與具身智能聯合實驗室”，並同步啟動聯合培養博士研究生雙學位項目，這項開創性合作標志著兩地在機器人科研及育材上的新突破。澳門大學在機器人研究領域具有深厚的研究實力，尤其是微納機器人技術領域的研究成果近期更獲國際權威認可，科研實力躋身全球前列。
