About

In-Gyu Park is a pioneering researcher in construction and shipbuilding robotics, specializing in the automation of heavy industrial tasks through multi-robot systems and precision manipulation. His most impactful work includes the development of the world’s first 3D precision cutting robot system for adjustment pipes in shipyards (2021, 4 citations), which normalized a previously manual, error-prone process. Park also led the design of a multi-robot system for pier construction (2024, 5 citations), addressing the unique challenges of bridge building at height—a domain where robotic implementation is notoriously difficult. His foundational research on gravity and friction compensation for 2-DOF manipulators (2015, 3 citations) advanced programming by demonstration, enabling collaborative robots to learn tasks intuitively. With a career marked by translating complex industrial workflows into robotic solutions, Park’s work directly improves safety, precision, and efficiency in high-stakes environments. His contributions are particularly notable for their real-world applicability, bridging the gap between theoretical robotics and the demanding constraints of construction and shipbuilding industries.
