About

Dr. Minsu Jegal is a robotics and mechatronics researcher specializing in navigation systems and industrial manipulator dynamics. His work focuses on developing compact, self-contained navigation solutions for challenging environments, as demonstrated in his most-cited paper, "Compact self-contained navigation system with MEMS inertial sensor and optical navigation sensor for 3-D pipeline mapping" (2010, 7 citations). This research integrates MEMS inertial sensors with optical navigation to enable robust 3-D mapping of pipelines, offering advantages in severe conditions where GPS is unavailable. Dr. Jegal also contributes to the flat panel display and thin-film solar cell industries through dynamic modeling of Glass Substrate Transfer Robots (GTRs). His 2012 paper, "Dynamic modeling of Glass Substrate Transfer Robot arm system by using 5-revolute joints manipulator modeling method" (3 citations), addresses the critical challenge of reducing meandering in high-speed, precise glass handling. By applying a 5-revolute joint manipulator model, he advances the performance of industrial automation. Though his citation counts are modest, Dr. Jegal’s work bridges fundamental robotics theory with practical applications in pipeline inspection and manufacturing, showcasing the impact of targeted, application-driven research in specialized fields.
