In spite of the distinct occupational requirement of lecturing performance as a professor, for the first time as the language handicapped, he was hired as a professor. He developed MICRO-ROBOT FOR BLOOD VESSEL INSPECTION USING A HYDRAULIC PROPULSION METHOD for the first time in the world. With regard to the ferry Sewol sinking disaster which took place on April 16, 2014, Prof. Lee addressed that many risk elements caused the accident in stages, namely, unqualified personnel, passing Maengol waterway with the strong current in the fast speed, overloading, the shortage of ship ballast equilibrium water, subsequently, he developed the real time ship-risk monitoring & disaster prevention system and the national integrated disaster prevention system related technology and system for precaution or countermeasure against disasters and applied for the patents thereon and decided to donate them to the government organizations or private companies for the public interest as of May 16th, one month after the tragedy. Prof. Lee is listed in a high school text book as 'The engineering professor who is engineering our future'. He developed the real time ship-risk monitoring & disaster prevention system and the national integrated disaster prevention system related technology and system for precaution or countermeasure against disasters and applied for the patents thereon. He wanted to suggest a solution to the survived families and people as a related scholar, and developed the technology to utilize as a foundation system in the control tower, such as Ministry of public security and safety, and decided to donate them to the government organizations or private companies for the public interest. He was listed as an engineering professor who is engineering the future as a high school text book, one of the reasons he developed MICRO-ROBOT FOR BLOOD VESSEL INSPECTIONL USING A HYDRAULIC PROPULSION METHOD is to remove the waste like cancer by using micro-robot, so when the development is complete, he wants to conduct the clinical experiment on himself to elevate the completeness of the technology and intends to free the cancer patients in this countries from the disease.
