The ‘AI Curling Robot Demonstration’ hosted by the Ministry of Science and ICT at the Korean Paralympic Committee Icheon Training Curling Center (Icheon, Gyeonggi-do) on the 8th drew huge attention. This is because of the popularity of ‘Team Kim’ that won the silver medal at the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics while yelling, ‘Young-mi, Young-mi’, which carried on to the curling match between humans and the world’s first curling robot that includes various advanced technologies including AI, which is the core technology of the 4th industrial revolution.
The YU research team that participated in this research include Department of Electrical Engineering (and Robotics and Intelligent Machine Engineering) Professor Lee Seok-kyu, Bae Hyun-soo (28) and Yoo Hee-rak (28) in the combined master’s degree program of the Graduate School of Electrical Engineering, Kwon Jae-hyun (24) in the master’s degree program, Kim Yun (23) senior at the undergraduate Department of Computer Engineering, and Department of Electronic Engineering senior Lee Chan-gyu (23), junior Jung Hyun-woo (26), Lee Joo-hyung (20), and Kim Nan-hee (20). They are all members of the YU robot club ‘Power Supply’. Students with various majors exchange knowledge and information at ‘Power Supply’ and enhanced their research capacities in the robot production sector through convergence of different majors.
Department of Electrical Engineering (and Robotics and Intelligent Machine Engineering) Professor Lee Seok-kyu said, “It is expected that the communication technology and the technology that adjusts the stone speed and rotations according to strategies considering the uncertainties of the continuously changing ice on the curling rink will be applied in other sectors in the future as well.”
