AboutAbout the lab
Supporting cutting-edge medical devices with the power of electromagnetic waves
The Yamamoto Lab focuses on medical applications of electromagnetic waves and studies the component technologies that support cutting-edge medical devices.
For implantable medical devices such as artificial hearts, the lab develops wireless energy transfer and communication that take the electromagnetic environment into account, as well as tissue-simulating phantoms and various types of antennas.
Transcutaneous transmission of energy and information to implantable devices is one example of its research themes.
Key terms
- Implantable medical devices
- Medical devices that are implanted and used inside the body, such as artificial hearts
- Wireless energy transfer
- A technology for sending power to a distant device without connecting it with wires
- Electromagnetic environment
- The state of the electromagnetic waves present around a device. The lab works on transmission and design that take this into account
