About

Dr. Se-Jin Kim is a robotics and automation researcher whose work bridges industrial manufacturing and healthcare technology. His key research areas include welding automation systems, autonomous mobile robotics, and energy-efficient sensor networks for the Internet of Things (IoT). Dr. Kim’s most notable contribution is the development of a multi-welding robot system for sub-assembly in shipbuilding (2008), a practical innovation that addresses complex automation challenges in heavy industry. More recently, he has advanced healthcare robotics with his work on an autonomous driving robot wheelchair for smart hospitals (2022), integrating ultrasonic sensors, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth modules to safely transport patients with mobility difficulties through large, complex hospital environments. This project demonstrates his commitment to applying robotics for social good. Additionally, his research on energy-efficient sensor device personalization for IoT and wireless sensor networks (2015) proposes a novel management scheme based on IEEE 802.15.4 unslotted CSMA/CA, contributing to sustainable wireless communication. With citations accumulating across his publications, Dr. Kim’s work reflects a versatile engineering mind, tackling both heavy industrial automation and compassionate healthcare solutions.
