Latest Patents

Jung’s listed patents address coordinated robot navigation and mobile manipulation.

“Driving Route Generation Method and System” describes generating routes for multiple mobile robots. The method creates virtual driving lines in a shared space, develops driving-behavior patterns based on those lines, and uses each robot’s initial and final positions to generate its route.

“Mobile Manipulator Robot and Method for Using the Same” concerns a mobile manipulator combining an autonomous mobile robot with a robotic manipulator. Using sensors such as LiDAR, cameras, torque sensors, and current sensors, the system detects approaching workers and potential interference. When interference is detected, it can activate a touching mode and analyze applied force to guide the operation of the mobile robot, the manipulator, or both.
