MathWorks , a leading developer of technical computing software, announced that it successfully held 'MATLAB EXPO 2025 Korea' at COEX Grand Ballroom and ASEM Ballroom on the 8th. The event was attended by over 1,500 domestic and international technical experts and MATLAB and Simulink users, who witnessed the latest technologies and engineering trends in various industries.
The event began with keynote speeches by Avi Nehemiah, general manager of design automation software at MathWorks, and Byungchan Jeong, CEO of Hanwha Robotics. In his keynote speech, Avi Nehemiah delved into the value of software-defined systems and how to implement them.
According to the announcement, Model-Based Design builds a digital thread that extends from requirements to architecture, functions, implementation, and testing, and can provide new functions without hardware changes through AI, data-driven functions, and cloud utilization. This approach has become a key element in increasing product value and improving user experience in various industries such as automobiles, industrial machinery, and medical systems.
In his keynote speech titled “Robots, Reinventing Daily Life and Industry through Innovation,” Hanwha Robotics CEO Jeong Byung-chan looked into the present and future of robotics technology. According to CEO Jeong Byung-chan, robotics technology is expanding beyond manufacturing to various fields such as services, healthcare, and agriculture. According to the presentation, this expansion, combined with the advancement of artificial intelligence and robotics technology, has the potential to have a significant impact on the industrial ecosystem.
The technical sessions of MATLAB Expo 2025 Korea consisted of six tracks: Algorithm Development and AI, Electrification, Model-Based Design, AI Application Engineering, Mobility, Wireless, and Satellite. Domestic cutting-edge technology companies such as Samsung Electronics, Hyundai Motor Company, SK Telecom, and Korea Electric Power Research Institute participated and shared examples of using MATLAB and Simulink.
The demo booths at the event showcased technologies from various industries. In the automotive sector, they showcased a DevOps environment integration solution for model-based design. MathWorks also demonstrated a CI environment construction method from requirements management to system architecture design, software development, and verification. In the wireless sector, they provided hands-on demos on a realistic satellite scenario visualization case using Unreal Engine to experience AI-based modeling techniques. Attendees were also able to see the code-based verification process through the Polyspace product line, an integrated platform for static and dynamic verification.
At the academic booth, research cases from several universities including Sejong University, Dankook University, KAIST, Inha University, Chonbuk National University, Changwon National University, and Korea National University of Engineering and Technology were introduced. Among them, Inha University's Embedded Control Lab. (ECL) presented 'Rapid Control Prototyping System and Advanced Control Technology'. Inha University ECL explained how to design a control system using Simulink-based block diagram programming and implement a real-time controller using its self-developed Lightweight Rapid Control Prototyping System (LW-RCP, Rapid Control Prototyping System). In particular, in the real-time control demonstration of a two-stage inverted pendulum system, technologies utilizing optimal control and reinforcement learning-based control were demonstrated.
Jongmin Lee, CEO of MathWorks Korea, said, “This MATLAB Expo was a meaningful event where attendees could see the future of the domestic engineering field,” and “MathWorks will continue to support technological advancements in various industrial fields such as AI, electrification, and mobility, contributing to strengthening the competitiveness of domestic industries.”
