I am thrilled that most sessions in our 1st summer camp sessions on the Jeju campus of Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology from 19th June to 14th July 2023 are shared with you all today.

The topics are very diverse. Please drop by if you would like to attend any of the 18 workshops. (PS: some videos are not uploaded until their research outcomes are published. They will be uploaded as soon as they are published)

Jang Kitae, Tiantian CHEN, Jinwoo Lee, and I really appreciate our fantastic speakers who are willing to share their talks with the public.
We have already been planning to have 2nd summer camp in 2024. Please stay tuned!!

At the 2023 Seoul Mobility Show(https://lnkd.in/gVxGSU9S) , we exhibited the multi-agent metaverse platform on behalf of KAIST Cho Chun Sik Mobility Graduate School. The KAIST campus was made into a virtual environment for the children who visited our booth and the experience of exploring the campus by walking, running, and driving in the virtual environment.
The self-driving car developed by Prof. Dongsuk Kum(http://vdclab.kaist.ac.kr/) in our department used the campus as a test bed and trained as a safer vehicle. This is physically time-consuming and costly. Thousands of scenarios can be tested without limit by building a virtual environment, and situations that are very difficult in real life can be created in the virtual environment. These abnormal driving behaviors become very important input data for autonomous vehicles.
