Welcome to 
KIST Advanced MaNipulation System & HUmanoid Robotics Lab

Our lab focuses on advancing robotics and AI, emphasizing AI-driven robot manipulation and humanoid robotics. By leveraging imitation and reinforcement learning, we enable dexterous, human-like manipulation and utilize VLM for improved perception. Our research also spans medical robotics, real-time control, continuum robots, and advanced sensing.
