About

Dr. Minju Kang is a rising expert in autonomous marine robotics, with a primary focus on the development and cooperative control of multiple autonomous surface vehicles (ASVs) for complex marine operations. Her most significant contribution, detailed in her highly cited 2023 paper, involves the end-to-end design, development, and successful field testing of a multi-ASV system. This work demonstrates a practical, catamaran-hull platform capable of executing autonomous cooperative navigation tasks, directly addressing the challenges of scalability and real-world deployment in dynamic marine environments. With this paper garnering 10 citations in a short time, her research is already shaping the future of maritime autonomy. Additionally, Dr. Kang has contributed to the foundational methodology of mechanical system analysis, developing a hybrid swept-sine and stepped-sine excitation technique for precise frequency response analysis in robotic systems. Her work is pivotal for advancing applications in environmental monitoring, maritime search and rescue, and autonomous fleet logistics.
