Hayashi Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that studies the motion and control of autonomous vehicles and railway vehicles.
AboutAbout the lab
Aiming for vehicles that are kind to both people and the planet.
The Hayashi Lab studies vehicles and transportation, building on mechanical dynamics, which deals with the motion of machines and objects, and control engineering, which is used to achieve target behavior.
Aiming to realize vehicles and transportation that are kind to the planet and to people, the lab pursues research shaped by social demands.
Recently, it has focused on technology development for next-generation transportation systems, such as vehicle control technology to reduce traffic accidents and human-machine interface devices for eco-driving support.
The lab is also actively engaged in research for autonomous vehicles, which are moving toward practical use.
Key terms
- Mechanical dynamics
- The field that deals with the dynamics of machines and objects. It is one of the academic foundations of this lab.
- Control engineering
- A discipline for achieving target behavior. It is grounded in mechatronics.
- Human-machine interface devices
- Devices that exchange information between people and machines. This lab works on devices for eco-driving support.
ResearchResearch themes
The Hayashi Lab conducts research on motion analysis of four-wheeled vehicles, two-wheeled vehicles, and railway vehicles, and on vehicle control algorithms. The lab's website lists current research including automatic parking of articulated semi-trailer vehicles, path generation on narrow roads, prevention of railway vehicle derailment during earthquakes, and dynamics models of two-wheeled vehicles.
