About
Sook Hee Park’s research focuses on the intersection of human-robot interaction, haptic feedback, and mobile robotics, with a particular emphasis on enhancing operator control and safety. Her most cited work, “Accurate velocity control based on the distance of a mobile robot and obstacle using a haptic joystick” (2012), introduces a novel system where a mobile robot equipped with a single ultrasonic sensor transmits real-time obstacle distance data to a haptic joystick. This force feedback mechanism allows the operator to intuitively sense environmental constraints, enabling precise velocity adjustments and safer navigation. By translating physical proximity into tactile cues, Park’s approach bridges the gap between human perception and robotic autonomy, reducing cognitive load and collision risk. Though her citation count (6) reflects a focused, early-career impact, the work demonstrates a clear contribution to teleoperation and assistive robotics—fields where intuitive control interfaces are critical. Park’s research is particularly valuable for students and engineers developing human-in-the-loop systems for service robots or remote exploration, offering a practical foundation for integrating haptics into real-time obstacle avoidance.
