About

Hyung-Jong Ko is a pioneering researcher in the field of miniaturized chemical sensing systems, with a primary focus on the development of integrated electronic noses (E-Noses) for artificial intelligence and robotics. His most significant contribution is the creation of a groundbreaking MEMS-CMOS integrated E-Nose, measuring just 4.0×3.7×1.0mm³, which embeds four gas sensors alongside temperature and relative humidity sensors on a single chip. This compact, highly integrated system represents a major leap forward in enabling AI robots to detect and recognize complex odors and flavors—a capability traditional physical sensors like cameras cannot provide. Ko’s work directly addresses the critical challenge of achieving parts-per-million (ppm) level gas sensing in a miniaturized form factor, making it suitable for real-world robotic applications. His 2020 paper on this innovation has garnered 8 citations, reflecting its emerging impact on the field. By bridging the gap between chemical sensing and AI, Hyung-Jong Ko is laying the essential groundwork for next-generation intelligent systems that can interact with and interpret their chemical environment.
