Dal Hyung Kim

Dal Hyung Kim is an Associate Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Kennesaw State University. His research focuses on Robotics, Biomedical Systems, and Control Engineering, with notable contributions to magnetic millirobots, insect locomotion tracking, and biomimetic systems. He earned his Ph.D. from Drexel University and holds M.S. and B.S. degrees from Korea University.

Research interests include biomimetic robotics, model predictive control, and bioinspired microrobotics. His lab, ASCI, develops transparent locomotion compensators (TOLC) for insect behavior studies and magnetic soft millirobots for biomedical applications. Recent work explores adaptive MPC for untethered insect tracking and corkscrew swimming in millirobots.
