About

Dong Seop Han is a leading researcher in space robotics and autonomous systems, with a primary focus on active debris removal (ADR) and non-cooperative target capture. His most significant contributions center on developing control strategies for dual-arm space robots to safely capture and detumble tumbling space debris—a critical challenge for orbital sustainability. His 2021 paper on capture and detumbling control for ADR has garnered 42 citations, while his 2022 work on gripping point-free capture of non-cooperative targets has earned 29 citations, reflecting the high relevance of his research. Han has also advanced spacecraft stabilization after multiple impacts during capture (23 citations) and trajectory prediction for space robots (9 citations), addressing key technical hurdles in on-orbit servicing. Earlier in his career, he applied task-oriented design methodology to develop a fire-searching robot (30 citations) and designed advanced container transportation systems using transfer robots. Han’s work bridges fundamental robotics theory with pressing real-world applications, making him a notable figure in space robotics and autonomous manipulation.
