Prof. Lee recently attended the IEEE/ASME International Conference on Advanced Intelligent Mechatronics (AIM 2025), held in Hangzhou, China. AIM is one of the premier international venues for researchers and engineers in the fields of mechatronics, robotics, and intelligent systems.

During the conference, Prof. Lee had the valuable opportunity to reconnect with his academic advisor, Prof. Hungsun Son (UNIST), and also meet with Prof. Kok-Meng Lee (Georgia Institute of Technology)—a globally recognized authority in mechatronics and the doctoral advisor of Prof. Son. Their multigenerational mentorship meeting served as a meaningful moment to reflect on academic legacy, share recent research progress, and discuss future collaboration in the area of intelligent mechatronics systems.
