The research results have been reported in the leading domestic media, including YTN.<br \/>\nProfessor Hyun-Myung\u2019s lab has been accelerating research on various kinds of robot development, including the development of robots to repel jellyfish.<br \/>\nThe developed Mole-bot is a biomimetic robot that can be effectively used for unmanned underground, extreme regions, and space exploration by imitating the mole\u2019s biological structure and excavation habits.<br \/>\nMole-bot was developed to explore the area where coal-fired methane gas that can be used as a new energy source by replacing existing energy sources such as petroleum and coal, or rare-earth used in electronic devices is buried. Furthermore, it can be used for soil sampling of space planets.&nbsp;<br \/>\nThe research team expects that the Mole-bot is likely to be used in various fields, and it is also possible to enter the world market thanks to its excellent economic efficiency.<br \/>\nThe research has been conducted for three years since 2017, and the research team has published many papers in international journals and wined awards from international academic conferences.<br \/>\nThis study was supported by the Industrial Technology Innovation Project of the Ministry of Trade, Industry, and Energy.<br \/>\nCongratulations on Professor Hyun-Myung\u2019s excellent research achievements, and we look forward to future successes.<\/p>\n<p>[Link]<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/news.kaist.ac.kr\/news\/html\/news\/?mode=V&amp;mng_no=8190\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/news.kaist.ac.kr\/news\/html\/news\/?mode=V&#038;mng_no=8190<\/a>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ytn.co.kr\/_ln\/0115_202006050248129678\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.ytn.co.kr\/_ln\/0115_202006050248129678<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/pEnKy5UYEYQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/youtu.be\/pEnKy5UYEYQ<\/a>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><div class=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/drupal\/\ubab0\ubd07 \uc0ac\uc9c4_\uba85\ud604 \uad50\uc218 \uc5f0\uad6c\uc2e4_0.png\" alt=\"\" title=\"\"><\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>921<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":125067,"template":"","class_list":["post-117617","press-post","type-press-post","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/ee.presscat.kr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/press-post\/117617","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/ee.presscat.kr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/press-post"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/ee.presscat.kr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/press-post"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/ee.presscat.kr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/125067"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/ee.presscat.kr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=117617"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
