About
In Sung Jang is a pioneering researcher in the field of underwater robotics and marine construction automation. His work focuses on developing intelligent robotic systems for challenging subsea environments, with a particular emphasis on port and harbor infrastructure projects. Jang's most notable contribution is the development of an underwater construction robot designed for rubble leveling on the seabed—a critical task in port construction. This system integrates advanced imaging sonars, underwater cameras, long baseline (LBL) positioning, and gyroscope sensors to achieve precise seabed preparation. To enhance operator control and situational awareness, Jang also developed a virtual reality visualization system that allows for intuitive remote operation of the robot in murky, high-pressure underwater conditions. His research addresses the significant technical challenges of automating heavy construction tasks in low-visibility, high-risk underwater environments. While his most-cited paper has garnered 12 citations, Jang's work represents an important step toward safer, more efficient underwater construction methods, reducing the need for human divers in hazardous operations and paving the way for future autonomous marine infrastructure systems.
