About

Gyuree Kang is a robotics researcher whose work spans autonomous mobile systems, service robotics, and human-environment interaction. Based primarily at KAIST, Kang has built a distinguished research profile centered on deploying intelligent robots in real-world, complex environments — from urban apartment complexes to multi-floor buildings and high-speed racing circuits. Kang's most influential contribution is the development of assistive delivery robots capable of navigating GPS-denied environments using 3D point cloud map-based localization, a system introduced in a 2021 paper that has since accumulated 59 citations. This work directly addresses the practical challenges facing last-mile logistics automation. Building on this, a 2024 study on multi-floor indoor delivery robots (29 citations) extended these capabilities to the particularly demanding challenge of elevator navigation and vertical mobility in real buildings. Beyond logistics, Kang's research demonstrates impressive breadth: adaptive door-opening via mobile manipulators, drone-tethered grasping systems, V2X-independent autonomous driving models, and even a humanoid robot pilot capable of operating aircraft cockpits. Kang also contributed to KAIST's entry in the Indy Autonomous Challenge, pushing autonomous systems to their operational limits. Together, this body of work reflects a consistent vision of bringing robust, adaptable autonomy into complex, human-centered environments.
