About

Minjin Kwon is a researcher advancing the frontiers of tactile sensing and human-machine interaction. Her primary research areas include tactile sensor design, haptic feedback systems, and biomimetic thermal measurement technologies. Kwon's major contributions center on developing innovative sensing platforms that bridge the gap between artificial systems and human sensory capabilities. Her 2021 paper on a "Tactile Interaction Sensor with Millimeter Sensing Acuity" (3 citations) introduced a compact 3×3 mm sensor capable of simultaneously detecting pressure level, pressure distribution, and shear force direction—a breakthrough for applications in robotics and prosthetics. This work, featuring multiple mechanical switches under a conducting diaphragm, demonstrates her ability to create highly integrated, multifunctional devices. In 2022, Kwon extended her expertise to thermal sensing with her work on a "Portable heat transfer measurement system mimicking human thermal sensation" (2 citations), which replicates human thermal perception for wearable technologies. Though early in her career, Kwon's research shows significant promise for enhancing tactile feedback in virtual reality, medical devices, and assistive technologies, positioning her as an emerging innovator in sensory engineering.
