Hyundai Motor Group announced Wednesday that it has created a Joint Robotics Research Lab with Seoul National University, Pohang University of Science and Technology (Postech) and the Korea Institute of Science and Technology (KIST).
Hyundai NGV, Hyundai Motor Group's arm responsible for industry-academia partnerships, will collaborate with the three universities to operate the robotics lab for three years and jointly conduct research on mobile dual-arm robots.
Seoul National University will advance robotics software to enhance robots' perception of transparent objects and develop technologies that improve autonomous mobile performance using wide-angle cameras for accurate environmental perception. The university will also focus on developing collaborative control technologies for mobile dual-arm robots.
Postech will work on developing haptic devices necessary for remotely controlling robots. KIST will focus on developing object recognition technologies and algorithms that enable robots to predict movements in advance.
Hyundai Motor and Kia's Robotics LAB will contribute by focusing on robotics hardware research, enhancing the autonomous mobile performance of robots and developing technologies that allow robot hands to handle more complex shapes.
"In the future, mobile dual-arm robots will be key in the service robotics market," said a spokesperson for Hyundai Motor Group. "By working with Korea's top robotics research institutions, we aim to develop advanced robotics technology and create diverse markets in the service robotics sector."
