The lab builds digital twins and CPS from real-world data.

AboutAbout the lab
Fusing the real world and cyberspace
The Yamaguchi Lab conducts research on technologies that benefit cities and people, centered on real-world sensing, digital twins, and cyber-physical systems (CPS).
The lab collects real-world data from LiDAR, cameras, wireless sensing devices, robots, and other sources, and uses it for AI-based analysis and prediction.
Its target areas include smart cities, mobility and transportation, disaster mitigation and prevention, smart agriculture, and space and satellite technologies.
The lab is introduced as the Mobile Computing Group in the Department of Information Networking, Graduate School of Information Science and Technology.
Key terms
- Digital twin
- The idea of reproducing a real-world object in virtual space based on information obtained from sensors
- Cyber-physical system (CPS)
- A framework that captures the state of the real world with sensors and feeds computation results back into control or intervention
- Real-world sensing
- Efforts to collect real-world data from sensors and IoT devices
ResearchResearch themes
