- Assistant Professor Kiyotaka Kiyokawa received the Sigma Global Engineering Science Award.
- Between 2024-2025, multiple papers were published in journals such as IEEE Transactions on Automation Science and Engineering, covering topics like automatically preparing training data, 3D curving tasks, and component selection for craft assembly tasks.
- At the 2024 RSJ Academic Lecture, 15 presentations from the lab were made.
- In August 2024, welcomed new research associate professor Prof. Roman Mykhailyshyn.
Research Experience
- Focused on research in robotic manipulation, human motion analysis, motion planning, machine learning, new sensors and actuators, and industrial applications.
Background
- The dexterity of the hand is closely related to human intelligence. The lab aims to explore human intelligence and develop practical robotic systems through engineering means that realize the dexterous movements of human fingers and arms.
