Ayusawa Lab (Designated Visiting)
Machine-translated · View original
The lab uses the computation of robot motion to understand and augment human movement.
AboutAbout the lab
Human movement, through robot computation
The Ayusawa Lab studies the computational theory of motion, which is a foundation of robotics.
As applications, the lab develops technologies for simulating human motion using humanoid robots and digital humans.
Using these technologies, the lab works on robot technology that understands human movement, interacts with people, and expands human abilities.
Associate Professor Ayusawa is a designated visiting faculty member affiliated with the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST).
Key terms
- Dynamics
- The field that deals with the relationship between the forces acting on an object and the motion that results from them
- Humanoid robot
- A robot with a body shape close to that of a human, having a head, torso, arms, and legs
- Digital human
- A model that recreates the shape and movement of the human body inside a computer
ResearchResearch themes
The lab studies the computational theory of motion as a foundational technology of robotics. As applied technologies, it develops human motion simulation using humanoid robots and digital humans, and works on robot technology that understands human movement and augments human abilities.
