I am engaged in the research and development of robotic systems that contribute to the realization of an affluent society.Focusing on robotic systems, I pioneer the field of robotics where robots can work effectively, new ways of using robots, and new ways of making robots from the perspectives of hardware, software, and systematization.
TAKAHASHI Kazuhiro
Aiming at simple home disease testing through highly sensitive detection of biomolecules in body fluids and chemical substances in the air, we are conducting research on sensors that measure the mechanical quantity of molecules using MEMS technology. By using polymer nano-films and cross-linked structures of two-dimensional materials for the sensor functional part, we are aiming to realize ultra-sensitive sensors that can detect single molecules.

We can see and recognize things, and act without feeling any difficulties. Our mission is to explore visual function and the mechanisms of the brain which allow us to do so, and to develop new technology, including color universal design, spectral imaging, for visual information processing based on the fundamental vision research.
SHIBATOMI Kazutaka
Our main themes are the development of new highly functional optically active catalysts, asymmetric synthesis of chiral halogen compounds, cleavage reactions of carbon-halogen bonds, and high rate synthesis of chiral pharmaceutical and agrochemical products, challenging to develop unique reactions based on novel ideas and reactions that were previously difficult to achieve.

Advanced Agricultural Engineering Laboratory is focusing on the development of sensor-based plant diagnosis techniques (Chlorophyll fluorescence imaging, volatile organic compound measurement,photosynthesis and transpiration measurement etc.) for agricultural production under environmental control such as intelligent greenhouse and plant factory.
KAWANO Takeshi
Our research focuses on new science and technology of nano/micro-scale approaches for tackling challenging and interesting problems of “Connecting electronics to the brain”, which involves the development of high biocompatible neural interface devices and the high-quality signal recording from neurons.
NUMANO Rika
Our group propose medical innovation mainly in neuronal science by interdisciplinary research using original technique. An original DNA transfection method into cells, droplet electroporation, was developed . This technique can contribute to biomedical innovation in mass-production of iPS cells for regenerative medicine, genome editing for gene therapy. The long-term stable measurement can be succeeded in the brain activity of disease model mice by implanted TOYOHASHI electrophysiological micro probe. We are going to apply it to a drug screening in medicine., functional analysis of circadian rhythms or chrono pharmacology.

I am working on scaling up tasks on the micro-and nano-scale. In particular, cell therapy and drug discovery require the processing of single cells in large quantities. Micro/nano-devices, mechatronics, and information science are integrated to realize high-throughput cell processing.

Research and development of FRP (fiber reinforced plastic) material applications for construction use are implemented. Strength and damage sensing of the adhesive bonding and mechanical joints, unbonded strengthening methodology, and long-term mechanical behavior of FRP structures are also investigated.

We read the speaker’s intentions from the voice, judge the situation by the environmental sound, and move to the music. We aim to reveal how such a reaction to sound occurs from the input to the auditory periphery. We are also working on a “universal design of sound” that supports various hearing levels.
KOIDA Kowa
Our research goal is to understand neural basis of visual functions. We use macaques and mice as model animals and measure neuronal activities through electrophysiological recordings. Development of innovative electrodes is also carried out.

Our research interest is multimodal sensors based on CMOS/MEMS technology. We aim to apply our sensing approach, which combines CMOS-based sensor technology with deep learning, to biomedical, agricultural, and environmental measurement fields.
ARIYOSHI Seiichiro
Terahertz-waves, located in the gap between radio-waves and light-waves, are called as the “frontier of light”. Our research interests focus on the development on highly sensitive terahertz-wave detectors using low-temperature and high-temperature superconductors, two-dimensional spectroscopic technologies and their new applications. I concurrently serve as the department of applied chemistry and life science.
Mohammad Shehata
The research aims to understand the cognitive neuroscience behind high-engagement tasks. In these tasks, two brain states may emerge; a “flow state” marked by effortless super performance and enjoyment, or a “choking state” characterized by sudden failure and anxiety. Under social conditions, team flow emerges as in sports teams, and music bands. We use this knowledge to create neurofeedback mechanisms to enhance flow and prevent choking.

I am engaged in research and development of environmental recognition for robots. In particular, I am conducting research on recognition for agricultural robots. Farms are difficult places for robots to work, but I believe that robot applications in the agricultural field are essential.

IDE Tomoya
I am working on CMOS image sensors that can simultaneously image light intensity and wavelength information without optical filters. Conventional spectroscopic devices use RGB color filters to reflect and absorb some wavelengths and detect only specific wavelengths. I am studying image sensors that can identify wavelengths based on the ratio of electrons separated by a potential peak, focusing on the phenomenon that the absorption characteristics of light in silicon differs from each wavelength.

The Strategic Management Division promotes the development of research capabilities and social implementation. We will make the most of our one-stop semiconductor process facilities, which are rare in Japan, to expand research results and contribute to society, and strengthen our function as a hub to build a human network of engineers and researchers in industry, government and academia.

The research is focusing on the structure of cultivation equipment, cultivation techniques, and cultivars in a plant factory that is a cutting edge technology for agriculture. There are endless possibilities as a means of producing food in a plant factory because it does not depend on the weather and can stably produce vegetables. Also, as one of the research, we proceed with R&D to conduct quality assessment by a scent. Development of underlying technology aims to maximize the efficiency of cultivation. The goal of a whole research is for a plant factory to become established in a society.
