Robot Group

Recently, Robot is becoming established as human familiar existence. Home appliances and automobiles is thought of as becoming like Robot, because these have various sensors, not to mention computers. We think that important technology in Robots is hardware, control and sensing technique.

In our Lab, we study about robotics based on sensing information processing and percept.

Autonomous control of Hand/Arm Robot

Human hands are excellent organs which have both the function as actuators for manipulating objects to dexterity, and the function as sensing device for recognizing touching objects.

  • Hybrid control of the position and power by tacticle and force sense
  • Detection of slide by force sensor
  • Control of Hand/Arm Robot by vision sense feedback
  • Object grasping strategy by vision sense feedback

    • Remote control of Hand/Arm robot

    Recently, remote control robots is being carried out in remote area and dangerous area.In such a remote work, it is possible to enhance affinity with humans by using a Hand/Arm Robot which imitates a human hand.In our lab, we study for improving operability of remote control for Hand/Arm Robot.

  • Remote control of master-slave robot hand considering difference in structure
  • Development of the force feedback exoskelton for manipulating robot hand
  • Remote control of master-slave Robot Arm which is intuitive operation possible

    • Work environment presentation

    On remote control robot, recognizing correctly remote area environment can smooth remote control and increase efficiency.In our lab, we focus on VR/AR technology, study about the system of remote area presentation to a operator .

  • Study about work environment presentation for remote control of a robot
  • Study about gripping objects presentation for remote control of a robot hand

    • Cooperative work of human and robots

    Recently, robot technology have been applied to care and welfare robots.Furthermore, it has been expected that the robot has the ability about working with human in same area.

  • Development of Motion Capture System Using Multiple Depth Sensors
  • Robot-Human Handover Based on Motion Prediction of Human
