AI Robot Research Division

For a future where humans and robots coexist, we are developing AI-based autonomous manipulation technology for the next generation robots, human-robot cooperation technology, key component technology that determines the performance of robots, innovative design technology and robot application technology using it.

Department of robotics and mechatronics

Research Topics

• Next generation industrial robot & human-robot cooperation technology
• Wearable robot & human support robot technology
• Innovative robot design & robot core parts technology
• Robot application & industrial process standardization technology

Major Achievements

Robot core parts developed to secure the competitiveness of future robots, such as the all-round gripper capable of handling objects of all shapes, the robot hand capable of handling everyday tools, the artificial muscle-based cloth-type actuator for the implementation of a suit-type robot and the harmonic reducer design & performance prediction software.

In order to develop robots that can perform difficult tasks that cannot be implemented using existing robots, we developed dual-arm robot technology that can perform assembly tasks using both arms like a human and we also developed an intelligence-based control technology for multi robots that can handle parts that change shape, such as cables.
