Cuttng Edge Lab02iE-23Professor IWATA, HiroyasuThe Iwata Laboratory is exploring life support robotics that can enhance people's mental and physical functions and skills and create new lifestyles of the future by making full use of XR technology and AI/robotics technology.The main areas of application include healthcare, welfare, lifestyle, and sports. For example, in human augmented robotics, we are leading the world in proposing new concepts and developing new technologies, such as a "third arm" that can be attached to the body and operated by the user as he/she wants; a "detachable body" that can be detached from the body and attached to a wall, table, or cart; and "multi-presence" that allows the user to simultaneously perform different tasks at two locations using an alter-ego robot.In medical robotics, we have developed an CHEN, Po-han[ Taiwan ]Graduate from Wu Ling Senior High School,Taoyuan Cityultra-minimally invasive surgical robot that can accurately puncture a 150-mm deep area with a 0.5-mm diameter ultrafine needle with an accuracy of ± 5 mm. Applica-tion of this technology to cytological diagno-sis and puncture therapy is expected to lead to improved accuracy in cancer diagnosis and complete cure of advanced cancer.We have also succeeded in developing the world's first echocardiography robot that allows patients to undergo heart examina-tions while seated, where advanced integra-tion technology allows for precise control of the robot while analyzing AI images to produce appropriate heart images. Using this technology, which allows patients to easily undergo heart examinations while traveling on bullet trains or waiting at theme parks, we are seriously hoping to create a world with zero sudden deaths.ProfileEarned Ph.D. (Mechanical Engineering) at Depart-ment of Mechanical Engineering, Graduate School of Science and Engineering, Waseda University in 2003.
