Seung Ho Lee

About

Seung Ho Lee is a robotics researcher focused on enhancing physical human–robot interaction (pHRI) through advanced tactile sensing and adaptive control. His work centers on two key areas: soft tactile sensors for slip detection and impedance compensation for transparent robot behavior. Lee’s most cited paper (2020, 9 citations) introduces a non-array-type soft slip detection sensor that can be cut to fit arbitrary surfaces, enabling robots to safely manipulate objects without damage. This innovation allows tactile sensing on any contact point, expanding robotic dexterity. In pHRI, Lee developed a real-time adaptive impedance compensator using simultaneous perturbation stochastic approximation (2021, 8 citations), significantly improving interaction transparency. His recent work (2025) further refines free-space transparency through discrete energy-based compensation and unknown dynamics compensation, pushing toward seamless human–robot collaboration. With a growing citation record and a focus on practical, deployable solutions, Lee is establishing himself as a contributor to safer, more intuitive robotic systems.
