Welcome to my website! I am currently a principal humanoid engineer at ROBROS. Previously, I researched at the DYROS LAB and received a Ph.D. degree at Seoul National University (SNU) under the supervision of Prof. Jaehueng Park. My research is dedicated to building general-purpose humanoid robots, enhancing their capabilities in collision handling, dexterous manipulation, and agile locomotion. |

Momentum observer (MOB) can estimate external joint torque without requiring additional sensors, such as force/torque or joint torque sensors. However, the estimation performance of MOB deteriorates due to the model uncertainty which encompasses the modeling errors and the joint friction. Moreover, the estimation error is significant when MOB is... Read more 13 Sep 2023

The estimation of external joint torque and contact wrench is essential for achieving stable locomotion of humanoids and safety-oriented robots. Although the contact wrench on the foot of humanoids can be measured using a force-torque sensor (FTS), FTS increases the cost, inertia, complexity, and failure possibility of the system. This paper int... Read more 28 Jul 2023

The robust balancing capability of humanoid robots has been considered as one of the crucial requirements for their mobility in real environments. In particular, many studies have been devoted to the efficient implementation of human-inspired ankle, hip, and stepping strategies, to endow humanoids with human-level balancing capability. In this p... Read more 25 Jul 2023

Recently, foot stepping strategies of humanoid robots has been actively developed for robust balancing of humanoids against disturbances. In this paper, a novel stepping algorithm adjusting double support phase (DSP) time is proposed. First, the stepping algorithm is proposed based on a model predictive control (MPC) framework for capture point ... Read more 20 Jan 2023

— Maintaining balance to external pushes is one of the most important features for a humanoid to walk in a real environment. In particular, methods for counteracting to pushes using the centroidal angular momentum (CAM) control have been actively developed. In this paper, a CAM control scheme based on hierarchical quadratic programming (HQP) is ... Read more 07 Oct 2022
