Chungnam National University has been chosen to lead a government-backed AI technology and talent development project focused on physical AI. Funded by the Ministry of Science and ICT and supported by the Institute of Information & Communications Technology Planning & Evaluation, the initiative will receive up to 11 billion won ($8.2 million) over five years.
The research, led by Professor Park Ji-hun from the School of Computing and Artificial Intelligence, aims to develop core physical AI technologies such as multimodal foundation models, optimized on-device inference, multi-agent collaboration, and continual learning. The team seeks to apply these technologies to tackle challenges in unstructured agricultural environments and integrate them into broader applications.
