Etsuko Kobayashi, Professor
Medicine & Healthcare1 student voices
The Medical Precision Engineering Lab combines engineering and medicine to gain a deep understanding of biological phenomena, and develops that knowledge into new diagnostic and therapeutic technologies. The lab grew out of the Medical Precision Engineering chair, the first of its kind established within a faculty of engineering in Japan. The lab has Kobayashi, Nakagawa, and Tomii groups, working on surgical assistance robots, the interaction between acoustic waves and living bodies, ultrafast imaging, and biomeasurement that uses AI to interpret sensor signals. Faculty members, researchers, and students from a wide range of backgrounds, including medical doctors, are part of the lab, and it is also very active in joint research with clinical medicine.
Yutaka Ohtake, Professor
Software & Computing1 student voices
The Ohtake Lab researches algorithms that put 3D data obtained from CT scans and optical scans to use in industry. Measuring shapes with high accuracy is a foundational technology for precision manufacturing. The lab works on shape measurement with X-ray CT, techniques for creating simulation data from the shapes of real objects, and geometric modeling for 3D printing. The lab works closely with Associate Professor Koyama's lab and operates as the Ohtake-Koyama Lab.
Toshihiro Itoh, Professor
Imaging & Sensing1 student voices
The Microsystem Packaging Lab studies IoT devices built with tiny sensors, along with the systems that support them. Its targets include monitoring in which sensors are attached to people or animals for long periods to track their physical condition, as well as monitoring the condition of infrastructure and similar structures. The work builds on packaging and integration technology that embeds tiny sensors known as MEMS into devices, fabrics, and other materials. The lab is distinguished by its focus on creating devices that can be "embedded" in the environment and advancing its research through demonstration experiments.
Tomoyuki Yokota, Associate Professor
Semiconductors & Electronic Devices1 student voices
The Yokota Lab conducts basic and applied research on flexible and stretchable devices, including organic electronics. Organic electronics can be easily fabricated on film substrates using printing techniques such as inkjet and screen printing. For this reason, they are attracting attention as next-generation electronics that are thin, lightweight, and bendable. In particular, the lab is developing soft sensors that can detect physical quantities such as light, temperature, and pressure.
Koji Yatani, Professor
Software & Computing1 student voices
IIS Lab (Yatani Lab) studies how people interact with computers. The lab designs, implements, and evaluates intelligent interactive systems, aiming to support people's intellectual activities and healthy lives. It explores how users can make the most of information infrastructure such as artificial intelligence, big data, and IoT. Its research is built on three pillars: human-computer interaction, human-AI collaboration, and ubiquitous computing.
Yoshihiko Hasegawa, Professor
Quantum & Condensed Matter1 student voices
The lab conducts theoretical research spanning information science and physics. It uses theories such as stochastic processes, machine learning, quantum mechanics, information thermodynamics, and relativity. It deals with phenomena in which many elements influence one another in complex ways, strongly nonlinear phenomena such as biological oscillations, and states far from equilibrium. Its targets are a broad range of phenomena that have not been addressed within individual fields until now.
Tetsuya Iizuka, Professor
Semiconductors & Electronic Devices1 student voices
The Iizuka Lab studies integrated circuit systems that combine digital and analog technologies. Using extremely scaled semiconductor process technologies, where design becomes increasingly complex, the lab investigates how circuits should best be built. Based on theory and analysis, the lab clarifies guidelines for optimal design. The lab aims to realize high-performance integrated circuit systems for applications such as communications, IoT, and AI.
Hiroyuki Morikawa, Professor
1 student voices
Morikawa-Narusue Lab studies ubiquitous networks, sensor networks, and the mobile Internet. As the development of the Internet and mobile phones greatly changes information and communications, the lab aims to build a new generation of network information infrastructure. While envisioning the "killer applications" of the next generation, the lab develops foundational technologies and also builds prototypes to test ideas in practice.
Nobuaki Minematsu, Professor
Software & Computing1 student voices
The Minematsu-Saito Lab studies spoken language, which lies at the foundation of human communication. The lab considers both humans and computers as the producer and the receiver of speech, and takes every combination of the two as its research subject. Its work ranges from basic research on speech analysis, synthesis, recognition, and perception to applied research such as spoken dialogue systems and computer-assisted language learning. To close the gap with the flexibility of human communication, the lab explores new ways of modeling speech.
Yoshio Mita, Professor
Semiconductors & Electronic Devices1 student voices
The Mita Lab studies advanced integrated microsystems inspired by the functions of nature. From an electronic engineering perspective, the lab builds next-generation micro- and nano-devices that merge electrical and mechanical functions, along with systems that use them. Making full use of the equipment in the Super Clean Room of the Takeda Sentanchi Building, the lab carries out deep microfabrication. Its research themes include integration technology that combines MEMS and LSI on a single chip, mechanical memory, and light-receiving devices.
