In cooperation with Keio University (Japan) and Sabancı University (Turkey), we are announcing a possibility for student work in "real world haptics" (RWH) area.
RWH allows: realization of safe human-machine interaction, interaction of a robot with environment, and is opening a possibility of robot usage in sensitive environments or in interaction with humans. With secure communication technologies used by haptic senses, RWH enables interaction between humans and distant robots/machines. RHW encompasses wide range of research topics including: robotics, haptics, real-time control, networked control, safe real-time communication, real-time databases ....
This cooperation is opening a possibility of short/long stay visits to both Keio and Sabancı university.
Prof. Kouhei Ohnishi (Keio) and Prof. Asif Šabanović (Sabancı) will be at our faculty on June 6, 2016 to have meeting(s) with interested students and researchers.
For further information interested students may contact
Prof. Dr. Narcis Behlilović (nbehlilovic@etf.unsa.ba)
Asst. Prof. Dr. Tarik Uzunović (tuzunovic@etf.unsa.ba)
In order to introduce RWH to our students and staff, Prof. Ohnishi will give a lecture on June 6, at 11:00 AM, with the title: "Real world haptics"
More information about this area and research of Prof. Ohnishi you can find out from the document given in the attachment of this notification.
Biography of the speaker
Prof. Ohnishi received B. E., M. E. and Ph.D. degrees from the University of Tokyo in 1975, 1977 and 1980 respectively. Since 1980, he has been working at Keio University, the oldest existing higher educational institution in Japan. He is currently a professor at Department of System Design Engineering, Faculty of Science and Technology of Keio University. Being received prestigious awards including IEEJ paper award (1985), JSPE Award (1996), IEEE fellow (2001), JSME fellow (2003), EPE-BEMC Council Award (2004) and IEEE Dr.-Ing Eugine Mittlemann Achievement Award, he concurrently serves as an IEEE IES vice president and the head of IEEJ Industry Applications Society. His major publications include "Basics of Control Engineering" (Maruzen, in Japanese) and "Recent Advancements in Motion Control" (The Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun). His research interest lies in the field of electronics engineering, notably power electronics, motion control, robotics and haptics.
