About
Chang-Hoi Kim is a leading robotics researcher specializing in the development of remote-controlled and bio-inspired robotic systems for hazardous environments, particularly nuclear power plants (NPPs). His most impactful contribution is the design of a shared remote control mobile robot for aerial work in NPPs, which integrates a mobile platform, telescopic mast, and dual-arm slave to safely operate manual mechanisms like fuel changers—a paper that has garnered 22 citations. Kim has also advanced underwater robotics for reactor vessel inspection and live-line work robots for power lines, achieving 8 and 6 citations respectively. His notable work includes developing a snake robot for unstructured environments and pioneering the use of motion capture to analyze lizard locomotion, informing the gait planning of quadruped robots for uneven terrain. With over 60 citations across his top papers, Kim’s research bridges practical nuclear safety applications and biomimetic design, offering critical solutions for remote maintenance, inspection, and disaster response.
