- In order to establish high-speed robot senses that are much faster than human senses, we are conducting research and development of information systems and devices that can achieve real-time image processing at 1000 frames/s or greater. As well as integrated algorithms to accelerate sensor information processing, we are also studying new sensing methodologies based on vibration and flow dynamics; they are too fast for humans to sense.
Real-time Finger Tapping Interface

We also introduce a clickable pointing interface and a virtual musical instrument as demonstration application examples using the FINGERTAP system, and we show the effectiveness of nonmountable type finger-tapping interfaces, which can estimate the fingertip positions and their contact forces simultaneously.
