About

Yongsik Park is a robotics and rehabilitation engineering researcher whose work sits at the intersection of human motion, assistive technology, and robotic systems. His research primarily focuses on developing intelligent robotic platforms that replicate and support natural human and animal movement, with particular emphasis on gait rehabilitation and motion simulation. Park's most recognized contribution is his development of the HRB-1 horseback riding robot simulator, which implements realistic horse gaits and riding aids to provide a safer alternative to traditional equestrian training and therapy — work that has garnered 5 citations and addresses a genuine public safety need in recreational and therapeutic horsemanship. Complementing this, his series of studies on robotic gait rehabilitation systems and treadmill-based gait pattern generation demonstrate a sustained commitment to helping patients recover natural walking patterns through precisely controlled assistive torques, collectively accumulating nearly 10 citations across multiple publications. His earlier work on inertial motion sensor-based human motion reconstruction further highlights his broad technical range, contributing to fields spanning telemedicine, augmented reality, and human-machine interaction. Across his portfolio, Park consistently bridges mechanical engineering, robotics, and clinical rehabilitation, making his research relevant to both engineering communities and healthcare practitioners seeking technology-driven therapeutic solutions.
