Our lab members, Nakashima (M2), Yamamoto (M2), Katamine (M1), and Morita (M1) gave presentations at the 25th Annual Conference of the Society of Instrument and Control Engineers (SICE) System Integration Division in Morioka, Japan from December 18th (Wed) to 20th (Fri), 2024.
We held a welcome party for Dr. Nakajima, who joined us starting in November. We look forward to working with you!
Kengo Iwao (M2) presented at the 40th Anniversary of the IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation, held from Monday, September 23 to Thursday, September 26, 2024, in the Netherlands. Title: State Estimation and Environment Recognition of Articulated Structures Using Proximity Sensors Distributed on the Whole Body Authors: Kengo Iwao, Hikaru Arita, Kenji Tahara
We will be holding a laboratory tour on Monday, September 30th, according to the following schedule. We will introduce our research, share daily life in the lab, and demonstrate robots. If you are interested in the HCR Lab, please feel free to join us. Schedule 10:15 – 10:55 11:15 – 11:55 13:00 – 13:40 14:00 – 14:40 15:00 – 15:40 16:00 – 16:40
From September 1st (Sun) to September 2nd (Mon), we had a joint seminar trip with four research laboratories at Kyushu University’s Mountain House. The participating labs were the HCR Laboratory, Control Engineering Laboratory, System Engineering Laboratory, and Advanced Medical Devices Laboratory. On the first day, we enjoyed recreational activities and a BBQ, and on the second day, we visited Kusasenri and Yufuin for sightseeing.
Our lab members, Mr. Chao (GC-M2), Mr. Furunaga (M2), Mr. Katamine (M1), Mr. Tokiwa (M1), and Mr. Kanekiyo (M1) gave presentations at the 42st Annual Conference of the Robotics Society of Japan held in Sendai, Japan from September 3 (Tue.) to 6 (Fri.), 2024. Please refer to the proceedings for details.
Our paper on object grasping using a large linkage-type three-finger underactuated robotic hand has been accepted for publication in the ROBOMECH Journal. The paper proposes a data-driven method for estimating contact/non-contact and contact force magnitude of the fingertips from the force sensor information of a robot hand, which has a force sensor at the base of the linkage and no tactile sensor at the fingertips.…
On March 25, the graduation ceremony of the university and the completion ceremony of the graduate school were held. 5 undergraduate students, 2 master students and 1 doctor student graduated from our laboratory. Congratulations to all of them! We look forward to their further success in the future.
Our lab members, Mr. Wong (GC-M2), Mr. Iwao (M1), and Mr. Tokiwa (B4) gave presentations at The 24th Conference of the Society of Instrument and Control Engineers, Systems Integration Division, held from December 14 to 16, 2023, in Niigata. Please refer to the proceedings for details.
Long (GC-M2) gave a presentation at The 2024 16th IEEE/SICE International Symposium on System Integration (@Vietnam) held from January 8th (Mon.) to January 11th (Thu.), 2024. Please see the proceedings for details.
