Graduate Chankyu Han of KAIST ME > When a robot grabs an object or a medical device detects a pulse, the tactile sensor is the technology that senses pressure like a fingertip. Existing sensors had disadvantages, such as slow responses or declining accuracy after repeated use, but Korean researchers have succeeded in developing a

- Professor Jee-Hwan Ryu of Civil and Environmental Engineering receives the Best Paper Award from the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Robotics Journal, officially presented at ICRA, a world-renowned robotics conference. - This is the highest level of international recognition, awarded to only the top 5 papers out of approximately 1,500 published in 2024. - Securing a new working channel technology for soft growing robots expands the practicality and application possib
