About
Yeongmin Kim is a researcher in robotic rehabilitation and human-robot interaction, with a focus on postural stability in lower limb exoskeletons. His most cited work, "A research on the postural stability of a person wearing the lower limb exoskeletal robot by the HAT model" (2017, 7 citations), introduces a novel method for assessing stability using the Head-Arm-Trunk (HAT) model. By shifting the conventional focus from whole-body center of mass (CoM) to the HAT segment, Kim provides a more targeted approach for detecting instability in exoskeleton users. This contribution is critical for advancing safe, adaptive exoskeleton design, particularly for individuals with mobility impairments. His work bridges biomechanics and robotics, offering practical insights for fall prevention and rehabilitation. Though early in his career, Kim’s research lays a foundation for more intuitive and responsive assistive devices, with potential to improve quality of life for users with lower limb disabilities.
