About
Sijun Ryu is a leading researcher in mobile robotics, with a focus on designing innovative locomotion mechanisms that enable robots to conquer challenging terrains. His work centers on wall-climbing, stair-climbing, and obstacle-overcoming robots, with major contributions in transformable wheels and modular climbing systems. Ryu developed the R-Track, a reconfigurable wall-climbing robot with magnetic tracks for wall-to-wall transitions, and the shape-morphing wheel design that allows high-speed step climbing—both cited over 40 times. His modular two-degree-of-freedom transformable wheels and the angled spoke-based wheel (ASW) for the DODO robot further demonstrate his impact, with the latter optimized for granular and uneven terrains. Ryu’s research on evaluation criteria for wheeled mobile platforms and amphibious robots for rescue missions underscores his broad influence, with total citations exceeding 200. His work has been published in top venues like *IEEE Robotics and Automation Letters* and *Mechanism and Machine Theory*, and his designs are pivotal for advancing indoor service robots, rescue operations, and all-terrain mobility. Ryu’s innovations are shaping the future of agile, adaptable robots that can navigate complex environments.
