AboutAbout the lab
Prediction: A Future That Can Be Changed
The Mori Lab studies robotic caregiving (care robotics), nursing engineering, and healthcare AI.
The lab is developing technologies that estimate a person's physical and cognitive functions from sensor data and support well-being by anticipating needs ahead of time.
The lab's website states that, as medicine shifts from cure to care, it will realize healthcare support by integrating sensor, robotics, and AI technologies.
The lab moved from the University of Tokyo in April 2023 and was established at the same time as the Department of Functional Design Engineering. It is one of the labs that make up the department's Intelligent Recognition field.
Key terms
- Wound
- A medical term for an injury to the skin or other tissue.
- Impedance tomography
- A method of examining the inside of an object in an image-like way, based on the distribution of electrical impedance (resistance to the flow of electricity).
- Voiding diary
- A diary in which urination is recorded day by day.

The Mori Lab aims to realize healthcare support by combining sensor, robotics, and AI technologies. Its listed research topics include GPT-based processing of nursing records, digitization of voiding diaries, and wound monitoring.
*Illustrative imageA web app for voiding diaries
The lab is running trials of a web app for voiding diaries (compatible with smartphones, tablets, and PCs), and in July 2026 it began beta testing ahead of the third-phase survey. Digitizing voiding diaries photographed with a smartphone camera is also listed as a research topic.
*Illustrative imageSkin impedance tomography
The lab is conducting a survey study on the feasibility of skin impedance tomography, which is still ongoing as of 2026. A sheet-type wound monitoring system based on this method is also listed as a research topic.
