Research summary
A research on intelligent robot and mechatronics The purpose of the research is to "realize advanced motor intelligence (ability) of a robot". The concrete subject includes realizing the hand's gripping and handling abilities and walking ability, and observing human abilities using virtual reality force sense. [Research Subject (1) Outline] I am researching how to enable robot's hand to various skill tasks automatically. Particularly, I aim to realize the secure gripping and handling by the robot's hand with flexible skin. [Research Subject (2) Outline] Although a human worker can carries out the skill tasks, he/she cannot explain accurately how he/she performs the tasks in many cases. Then, I aim to understand the human skills based on the observation data of the skills by having the worker perform the task in a virtual space using virtual reality force sense. [Research Subject (3) Outline] I am engaged in the development of a virtual reality device using force sense, other control algorithms, a presentation method of dynamic virtual objects and so on. [Research Subject (4) Outline] I am aiming to realize more flexible bipedal locomotion. I am also researching how to realize the energy-saving locomotion. [Research Subject (5) Outline] I am engaged in the basic research to realize intelligent actions integrating move functions and arm work functions of wheeled mobile robot equipped with arm.
