Equipped with a so-called'wearing robot' on the bridge, it passes through uneven terrain and climbs and descends stairs.

This is a'Cyberthlon' competition that combines Cyborg, which stands for mankind, and Athletic Athlon.


In the coming 4 years of September, the 2nd competition will be held with 25 countries participating.

Lee Joo-hyun, the national team player, was paralyzed in a traffic accident last year by a senior high school student.

He became a college student after continuing his studies without being frustrated by the severe aftereffects.

It was a year after I joined the robot research team that I wore with this strong will, I got the Taegeuk mark.

[Lee Joo-Hyun/Cyber ​​Sloan Player: I didn't think I was going to be selected as a player, so let's enjoy and I participated with this thought, but I will train hard to win the 1st and 2nd place

. It is important.

Byeong-wook Kim, who won the bronze medal in the first competition, will learn new techniques and re-run.

Robot performance has also been upgraded.

It's 2.4 km/h and the speed of walking by the public, but it's officially the fastest in the world.

Thanks to the precise analysis of the athlete's gait pattern and movement of the joints, the robot's sense of balance has been raised, and the body weight of the robot weighing 27 kg has been significantly reduced.

Most of all, the research team is looking forward to the gold medal because the balance can stably climb the absolute stairs.
