Dynamic Robotic Systems Lab (DYROS Lab), Machine Intelligence & Pattern Analysis Lab (MIPAL Lab), and SimLab (private company) of SNU are involved in robotics.

DYROS Lab is in charge of control aspects of the robot and overall team management. The lab develops advanced intelligent robotic systems and their control algorithms so that they can interact with humans in our human environment. The main research areas are whole-body multi-contact control, robot–environment interaction, biomechanics, human motion analysis, compliant actuators, and robotic arts (http://dyros.snu.ac.kr).

MIPAL works on the perception aspect of the robot for Team SNU. MIPAL at SNU studies a broad spectrum of subjects relevant to pattern recognition and machine learning using statistical analysis. MIPAL’s main area of interest includes object recognition, object detection, pattern classification, statistical data analysis, Image processing and Computer vision (http://mipal.snu.ac.kr ).

SimLab provides the software framework and interface to the robot for Team SNU. The company makes the complete software and hardware solutions for the robotics research, development, and educational communities (http://www.simlab.co.kr).
