Kogiso Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A control engineering lab that skillfully controls the motion of objects and people.
AboutAbout the lab
Skillfully controlling the motion of objects and people.
The Kogiso Lab studies mechanisms and methods for skillfully controlling the "motion" of objects and people.
In control engineering, the motion and mechanisms of a target are turned into a mathematical model from data or physical equations, and a control method that satisfies the required specifications is designed.
The professor works on encrypted control, control of artificial muscles, control of decision-making, and control of constrained systems.
The lab also aims to carry out joint research with companies and others, and to open up new areas of applied control research.
Key terms
- Mathematical model
- A form of expression that objectively describes the behavior of and knowledge about the target to be controlled. It plays an important role in control system design
- Encrypted control
- An approach that keeps a control system running while protecting confidential information, as control systems increasingly become remote and cloud-based
- Artificial muscle
- A pneumatically driven rubber component. It is used to develop flexible actuators (devices that generate motion)
NewsLab news
A master's student was selected as a Finalist at SICE FES 2026 and received the SHI Sponsored Award
An explanatory article by Professor Kogiso was published in "Robot," the journal of the Japan Robot Association
Encrypted control technology, a result of joint research with the Kanagawa Institute of Industrial Science and Technology, has been granted a patent
Professor Kogiso and colleagues received the Society of Instrument and Control Engineers (SICE) FY2025 Society Award (Paper Award)
ResearchResearch themes
Based on the fundamental ideas of control engineering, the lab explores mechanisms and methods for skillfully controlling the "motion" of objects and people. Beyond conventional electrical and mechanical control, it treats more abstract situations involving "motion" as target systems as well, and takes on their analysis and control.
