Murakami Laboratory - Human-Friendly Mechanical System Control

In recent years, robots have become increasingly familiar, not only for their application in industrial systems but also in our daily living spaces. Mechanical systems capable of providing motion support and instruction through direct interaction with people hold great promise as systems that will enhance safety and security in our living spaces and as a means to support the elderly in the future.

At the Murakami Laboratory, we are engaged in research on the control of mechanical systems that interact with people and on human-friendly control, proposing new control methods that reconsider the interactions among mechanical systems, people, and the environment.
