📊Main Content and Outcomes
As a kickoff for KUPAC, which was established on July 24th, we held an inaugural event that also served as the first Physical AI study group. 27 people attended the event, and lively Q&A sessions were held during the presentations. The subsequent networking session fostered exchanges across specialized fields and organizations, making it a successful event worthy of the community's full-scale launch.
