Youngjin Kim

I am a Dynamic Systems and Control Researcher. I completed my Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering at the University at Buffalo, The State University of New York (SUNY-UB). My dissertation, titled Advanced Motion Planning Strategies for Wheeled Mobile Robots: Performance, Efficiency, and Safety, was advised by Dr. Tarunraj Singh.

I later worked as a Postdoctoral Researcher in the Department of Computer Sicence at SUNY-UB, conducting research endeavors in autonomous robotics under the supervision of Dr. Karthik Dantu. During this time, I focused on developing control and planning frameworks for mobile, legged robots, and construction vehicles.

Before my postdoc, I worked at Volvo Construction Equipment as a Control Systems Engineer (Intern), where I developed novel control algorithms for asphalt compactors, that significantly reduced vibration and noise.
