Toward Next Generation Mechatronics and Control

My team and I aim to achieve control performance that pushes the physical limits through innovations in control theory driven by the requirements of cutting-edge industrial and scientific applications. We pursue both performance and robustness through integrated optimization of the entire mechatronic system and controller design, including system identification and learning control. Our application includes precision mechatronics, electrical motors, power electronics, plasma, thermal systems, and pneumatic systems. Through domestic and international industry-academia collaboration, we propose and implement control theory and control system design methods for world-class control targets such as semiconductor manufacturing equipment, railroad systems, and power system equipments to support a sustainable and prosperous society.
