Tateno Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that uses wireless communication and sensors to watch over people and objects from a distance.
AboutAbout the lab
Watching over people and objects from a distance.
The Tateno Lab studies how to monitor the condition of people and objects from remote locations using wireless sensor networks and IoT devices.
Its targets include grasping the situation of rescue workers at disaster sites and monitoring health conditions in hospitals and nursing care facilities.
Another pillar is production process engineering, where the lab develops systems that quickly detect and diagnose abnormalities occurring in chemical plants.
The lab's motto is "Turn new and interesting ideas into something useful to the world!"
Key terms
- Wireless sensor network

- IoT
- A mechanism in which everyday devices are connected to the internet and exchange data
- Signed directed graph
- A diagram that represents cause-and-effect relationships using lines with direction and plus or minus signs

ResearchResearch themes
The Tateno Lab studies mechanisms for grasping the state of people and objects from a distance using wireless sensor networks and IoT devices. It also develops systems that quickly detect and diagnose failures and abnormalities occurring in production processes.
*Illustrative imageSupporting rescue workers
To improve the safety and work efficiency of rescue workers at disaster sites, the lab developed, jointly with a company, a remote monitoring system that tracks workers' conditions and a communication method for it. It is extending this system to monitoring services for older adults and children.
*Illustrative imageMonitoring in hospitals and nursing care facilities
The lab is developing systems that use wireless networks to monitor the health condition and activity of hospital inpatients and nursing care facility residents. IoT devices such as accelerometers and pulse sensors collect daily data, machine learning estimates location and behavior, and the system detects falls.
*Illustrative imageFault diagnosis in chemical plants
The lab studies systems that detect and diagnose failures in chemical plants. It has developed a method that accumulates past operating data and compares predicted and measured values, and a method for fast diagnosis using signed directed graphs based on graph theory.
*Illustrative imageIndoor positioning systems
Indoors, GPS has difficulty sending and receiving satellite signals and does not achieve sufficient accuracy. The lab is currently putting particular effort into research that uses multiple wireless communication modules such as ZigBee, LoRa, and UWB to calculate the estimated position coordinates of a target. In joint research with external organizations, it also conducts experiments assuming practical environments.
