About Us

We are exploring the technologies necessary for new artifacts, including robots, to coexist with and support humans.

We are part of the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering for undergraduates and the Department of Robotics for graduates.

Most of the activities are carried out as Hirata-Salazar Laboratory/Tamura Laboratory
