[Sports Seoul Reporter Shin Jae-yoo] As the era of the 4th Industrial Revolution approaches, robot companies are fiercely competing to take the lead in the global market. Amidst this, FRT Robotics (FRT) (CEO Jae-ho Jang), a leader in the practical application of robot technology, is receiving extraordinary attention.

 

This company is a specialized company in the design and manufacture of wearable robot products, established in 2015 by robot engineers from the Korea Institute of Industrial Technology. Based on its unique technology and know-how, it has been recognized for its capabilities by developing 'HyPER', a hydraulic wearable robot with a human-compatible drive mechanism, for the first time in Korea.

 

'HyPER R1' for special purposes and 'HyPER M1' for multipurpose use are exoskeleton-type wearable robots that are attached to the outside of the operator's body working in the private and military sectors such as disaster, fire, and production sites.

 

The small hydraulic drive mounted on the device supports the operator's muscle strength for performing tasks, so it can easily move heavy objects with little force, which is excellent in work efficiency, and implements a shock absorbing device to reduce physical fatigue.

 

FRT Robotics is focusing on research on performance enhancement, miniaturization, and practical application of 'HyPER', and it is expected to be used in various fields such as firefighting, medical care, welfare, leisure, and national defense in the future. This company has been selected as an excellent company in the senior-friendly industry in the Busan area since 2016, and was selected for the startup support project of the Daegu Gyeongbuk Institute of Science and Technology (DGIST) Industry-University Cooperation Foundation and received funding.

 

In 2017, it participated in the 2nd 'Future Growth Engine Challenge Demoday' hosted by the Ministry of Science, ICT and Future Planning and exhibited the muscle strengthening wearable robot 'HyPER', which helps overcome human physical limitations, and won the Prime Minister's Award.

 

Following this, it signed a 4th Industrial Revolution flagship MOU with Gyeongsangbuk-do Province and signed a business agreement with the Korea Institute of Robot & Convergence and TrekSta to develop and mass-produce the world's first advanced shoes based on wearable robots. Through this, the company plans to promote joint development of product design and technology, product commercialization, technology transfer, and consulting support using wearable robot technology.

 

FRT Robotics is focusing on R&D to preempt the global market, exporting HyPER for defense and HyPER for healthcare overseas, and plans to participate in a world-class defense exhibition in October. CEO Jae-ho Jang said, "We are planning to operate an experience center to increase the accessibility of wearable robots."
