Korean Robotics Society Red Show Excellence Award Winner / Professor Cho Baek Kyu (School of Mechanical Engineering) Research Team
- 26.02.26 / 전윤실
Professor Cho Baek Kyu's research team from the School of Mechanical Engineering at our university won the Excellence Award at the 21st Korea Robotics Society Annual Conference held at the Alpensia Convention Center in Pyeongchang, Gangwon Province, from the 4th to the 7th.

This conference evaluated four fields: △Robotics △Artificial Intelligence (AI) △Autonomous Driving △Control Engineering.
Professor Cho Baek Kyu's research team's robot Ruby stands approximately 75cm tall, weighs 28kg, and features 6 degrees of freedom (DOF), enabling stable walking on any terrain. Its key feature is the ability to perform ‘underwater walking’. Ruby is the world's first walking robot capable of freely walking underwater.
Professor Cho Baek Kyu stated, “As the era of physical AI begins, the core technology that will determine success or failure in this market is now shifting to robot hardware.” He added, “Global competition is intensifying, especially as AI becomes capable of training complex multi-joint robots, from quadrupeds to humanoids. We will continue our research to meet these demands.”
