About

Sang Yong Park is a researcher whose work spans robotics, mechatronics, and intelligent systems, with a particular focus on exoskeleton robots and electro-hydraulic actuation. His most influential contributions center on the development and control of electro-hydraulic actuator systems designed for wearable exoskeleton robots — a technically demanding domain requiring precise management of compactness, energy efficiency, and nonlinear system dynamics. His 2019 papers on electro-hydraulic actuator development and nonlinear control design have garnered 29 and 26 citations respectively, establishing him as a meaningful contributor to wearable robotics engineering. Park has further advanced the field through innovative motion profile design, proposing a weighted fuzzy logic algorithm capable of interpreting wearer intent in real time for lower-limb exoskeletons. Beyond wearable systems, his research portfolio demonstrates notable breadth, including in-pipe robot navigation, heterogeneous robot-assisted services in medical isolation wards, and a timely review of smart airport security technologies. This diversity reflects Park's commitment to applying robotics and automation principles across real-world infrastructure and healthcare challenges, making his work relevant to engineers, clinicians, and policymakers alike.
