Supervisor

Professor / Toshimasa MIYAZAKI
Prof. Miyazaki is a professor at our university has been working at the University since 2010 and the Mechatronics Laboratory was started. In the laboratory, the exchange of opinions and information between students is especially important, the professor also responds to consultation kindly.

Research Content

Mechatronics is the fusion of machinery (mechanics) and electricity (electronics) and the field of control engineering. Mechanical and electrical elements are inseparable. For example, when moving a robot arm, the movement of the arm requires a mechanical element, and the motor for driving force requires an electric element. Currently, our laboratory is studying electric transporter, industrial AC motors, DC/DC converters, walking robots reproducing human muscle structures, and so on. Our laboratory is engaged in research to control these electrical and mechanical elements at will.

A Day in the Lab

At the weekly report meeting, discuss the progress of the research and research plan.
~stream of time in a day~
9:30 There is a morning meeting.
In the morning, study and simulate research.
12:00 We eat lunch at school cafeteria or shop.
13:00 From the afternoon, we make experimental machines and experiment.
18:00 For dinner, we eat out with my friends.
Share the day's events.
We come home after thinking about tomorrow's schedule.
