Outline of Final Research Achievements

We developed a device to measure multi-sensory information including whole body tactile information and clarified the principle of skilled motion performed by humans such as object manipulation done by palm using such information. In addition, we developed a robot designing method and motion generating method which performs agile motions, and realized agile motions using flexible tools such as pole vault and badminton. In addition, by establishing, analyzing, and applying information processing systems based on the nervous system of living organisms, we established a method of robots to instantaneously generate adaptive behavior.
