Advanced Medical Devices Lab. – We study for technologies of advanced medical applications based on Mechanical Engineering.

Hand Rehabilitation Robot SMOVE

is currently developing under a collaboration with a pharmaceutical company, manufacturing company and a Kyushu University originated startup company - Megwel.

2.0 and 3.5mm robotic forceps with 4 DOF for Minimally Invasive Surgery

composed by elastic structure that greatly contributed to the miniaturization of the manipulator.

Surgical Robot Design based on Compliant Mechanism

is studied based on Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to provide the design criteria for the implementation of surgical robots with largely deformable elements in motion.

Micro surgical robot toward "ultimate intuitiveness"

aiming at the system that the operator feels the robotic system as a part of his/her body by the effect of multi-sensory illusion.

Microsurgical robot system “Smart Arm”

was integrated by many research organizations including our lab that provided the robotic forceps. This work was funded by ImPACT Program of Council for Science, Technology and Innovation (Cabinet Office, Government of Japan).
