Mankyu Sung

Hello, I am a graduate student have graduated from Computer Science department at University of Wisconsin-Madison. I was a member of computer graphics group working with professor Michael Gleicher and Stephen Chenney. Before I came here, I've worked at Electronics and Telecommunication Research Institute(ETRI) for six years. At there, I worked in Virtual Reality, Networked Virtual Environment and haptic interface for blind people.

Currenly, I'm working on the large number of character controls including path planning, behavior control, interfaces and collision avoidance. In particular, I developed the scalable behaviors for crowd simulation. and fast and accurate goal-directed motion synthesis for crowds.

My resume is available in many several formats.

    • We can visualize simulations with Unreal game engine, which is very fast and efficient
