AboutAbout the lab
Creating machine systems that assist humans
The Tadano Lab studies machine systems that assist human work.
Its research centers on surgical robot systems and teleoperation, in which machines are operated from a distance.
The lab aims to achieve effective assistance for human tasks and advanced interaction between humans and machines.
Pneumatic systems, which are driven by the force of air, are another key topic of research.
