Our lab is with the Robotics and Mechatronics Engineering Department, Daegu Gyeongbuk Institute of Science and Technology (DGIST).
We are looking for passionate students! How to join →
Robots that understand and respond to real physical contact, not just imitate geometric motion. We work across the full stack, from actuator and robot design to sensing systems and learning-based control, toward human-robot coexistence.
Safe and practical whole-body tactile skins for humanoid robots. AI-oriented hardware design allows simple skin structures to yield rich contact information, where AI enables tactile super-resolution and semantic contact understanding.
Fusing tactile, proprioceptive, and inertial sensing into unified physical state representations for contact-rich environments. Giving robots physical awareness that vision alone cannot provide.
Leveraging multimodal sensing and learning-based methods for motion planning and whole-body force control. The goal is robots that are both safe and physically capable in contact-rich interaction.
