Artificial Intelligence Lab
Machine-translated · View original
The lab studies human-assistive robots and artificial intelligence that connect human intelligence with machine functions.
AboutAbout the lab
Supporting people with systems that sense what they need.
The Artificial Intelligence Lab studies artificial intelligence that fuses human intelligence with machine functions, based on an understanding of embodiment and of intellect, emotion, and will.
The lab aims to create intuitive systems that anyone can use, and information and machine technologies that support, amplify, and extend human abilities.
To provide the support people need at the moment they need it, the lab works on artificial intelligence that connects the human conscious and unconscious mind with machines.
In every research project, the lab develops hardware as well as software, and it collaborates with fields such as medicine and sports science.

ResearchResearch themes
The Artificial Intelligence Lab studies next-generation artificial intelligence that connects the human conscious and unconscious mind with mechanical systems, in order to realize technologies that give people the support they need when they need it. Its research projects fall into the areas of human support, social interaction and developmental support, social robotics, and next-generation intelligent technologies.
*Illustrative imageHuman support through cybernics
In robot-assisted rehabilitation and wearable robots, the lab studies neuromechatronics, which connects information and machines through the human brain and nervous system, aiming at technologies that provide the support people need.
*Illustrative imageSocial interaction and developmental support
The lab develops social playware that supports play and social interaction, as well as music technology that uses body movements. It also conducts demonstration experiments with children with pervasive developmental disorders and develops developmental support methods based on social imaging.
*Illustrative imageRobots that learn human subjectivity and cognition
Based on an understanding of human subjectivity and of cognitive and motor characteristics, the lab studies how to teach social robots and machines and how they learn. Using upper-body humanoid robots, both human-sized and small, it builds robots that learn over the long term and interact continuously with people.
*Illustrative imageNext-generation intelligent technologies
The lab studies next-generation human interfaces, brain-machine interfaces, and information visualization and experience augmentation. It also works on self-repairing and modular robots and on energy-autonomous survival robots.
