About
Jae-Min Kang is a leading researcher in field robotics, with a primary focus on autonomous aerial systems and multi-vehicle coordination. His most cited work presents a mission management system for complex aerial logistics using multiple unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), developed for the prestigious 2017 Mohamed Bin Zayed International Robotics Challenge (MBZIRC). In this landmark study, Kang and his team demonstrated a sophisticated system where three UAVs autonomously executed search, pickup, and drop missions, successfully handling 23 circular and rectangular targets—a feat that showcased real-time task allocation, path planning, and collision avoidance under dynamic conditions. This work, with 11 citations, has become a foundational reference for researchers tackling multi-UAV logistics in unstructured environments. Kang’s contributions extend beyond this challenge, as his research bridges the gap between theoretical multi-agent systems and practical field deployment, addressing critical issues in aerial manipulation, sensor fusion, and mission robustness. His achievements highlight the growing importance of autonomous drones in logistics, disaster response, and industrial inspection, making his work essential reading for students and engineers advancing the frontiers of aerial robotics.
