Robot Learning Laboratory

ex) The goal of this project is to develop efficient, safe, and socially friendly machine learning so that autonomous robots can coexist with people in various environments. In this project, we develop socially friendly robot learning technology that enables efficient reinforcement learning with fewer data and ensures safety. The developed […]

Biorobotics Laboratory

Welcome to the SNU Biorobotics Laboratory. Since the fall of 2008, SNU Biorobotics lab has been developing soft biologically inspired mechanisms and robots especially with the goal of developing innovative ways of creating motion without rigid joints and rigid links for life-like robots. Biology has lots of inspiration for creating […]

Robot Vision Lab

In the Robot Vision Lab, we conduct various research on 3D modeling, object recognition and tracking, real-time 3D sensing, and sensor fusion to apply computer vision and machine learning technologies to robots and autonomous devices, with a focus on Visual SLAM, large-scale 3D modeling, and visual tracking.
