Biography

Researcher profile

His research interests are design and control of the mechano-creatures that emerge complicated functions based on its interactivities with the human beings and the environments. Toward the formulization and the realization of the integrated control strategy that is built into the shapes and the structures of the mechano-creatures, both analytic and synthetic approaches are adopted.

General introduction

ばねの力だけで無重力状態を実現する自重補償リンク,固さを任意に調節する可変粘弾性ジョイント,多くのユニットを少ないアクチュエータで協調させる劣駆動アームなど,「メカニズム」によりシステムに運動機能を与える機械設計・制御をコア技術としている.その応用として,人間の動きに合わせる「しなやかさ」を有する福祉機器や「巧みさ」を有するロボットの研究開発を進めている.

Research

Reseach overview

This laboratory is focused on design and control of mechano-creatures possessing complex functions based on interactivities with the humans and the environment. Analytic and synthetic approaches are adopted to formulize and realize integrated control strategy built into the shapes and the structures of mechano-creatures.
