About the Laboratory & Research Area

Since the establishment of our laboratory in 1996, we established the Intelligent Vehicle IT Research Center funded by the Korean Government, and we started the intelligent vehicle research. Now we are conducting various types of research for the intelligent vehicle. The research focuses on autonomous driving not only in structured environments like urban areas but also in unstructured environments such as off-road areas. We engage in full-stack development and research, starting from hardware components like sensors and vehicles to embedded software. We strive to create a safer and high-performance autonomous driving system by utilizing both simulation and real-world environments simultaneously. Our research lab is committed to efficiently addressing the complex problem of autonomous driving by separating it into manageable components. We aim for all parts to work together optimally, leading to the development of a perfect autonomous driving system. Through these efforts, we have carried out large-scale national/corporate tasks and have numerous demonstration experiences within the laboratory, and have consistently published results in many domestic and international journals/conferences, including RA-L, ICRA, IROS, ICRA, ICML, and T-ITS.
