The student editorial members of the Robotics Society of Japan visited our laboratory for an interview. We had the opportunity to talk about our research topics, the challenges involved, and various aspects of our work. The interview will be published in the RSJ journal, so please take a look if you’re interested.
We held a small celebration in the lab to mark the end of the midterm presentations and the Techno Festa. In the first half, we played soccer on the field, and in the second half, we enjoyed board games and other activities. It was a great chance for everyone—including those who don’t usually exercise—to relax and refresh.
We held a joint midterm presentation session with the Ito and Usuki labs. It was a good opportunity for students to review their progress and identify what to work on next. Let’s apply the feedback and keep pushing forward with your graduation research! Great job, B4 students!
After the Techno Festa, we held an alumni gathering with the graduates who came to visit. The students who participated had the opportunity to hear many valuable stories from their seniors.
We held a BBQ party to welcome the new fall internship and lab work students. Although it was a bit chilly, everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. Let’s continue working hard together from here on!
Mr. Takamori and Mr. Paco from our laboratory participated in IROS 2025, held in Zhejiang Province, China. They had the valuable opportunity to present their work at IROS, one of the top conferences in the field of robotics. It was a great experience for them — we wish them continued success in their future research!
Intern Brieuc san gave his final presentation. It was a wonderful conclusion to his four months of research. We would be delighted if his internship experience was a fulfilling one. Thank you very much for your hard work.
The Open Campus at Shizuoka University’s Hamamatsu Campus was held. Many high school students and their parents visited the Kobayashi–Hayakawa Laboratory’s booth. We hope this event will serve as a helpful reference for those who are about to decide on their future academic paths.
We held a farewell party for Brieuc san, combined with a celebration for the students who completed their midterm presentations. Great work to Brieuc san and all the B4 students! Although Brieuc san was with us for only four months, he made a great effort as a member of the Kobayashi–Hayakawa Laboratory, both in his research and in communicating with other students. Brieuc san, it was a pleasure working with you, even for a short time. Thank you very much.
Six fourth-year undergraduate students (B4) gave their midterm presentations. It seems that everyone is becoming quite familiar with their research. There will likely be even more challenges ahead, but let’s work together with the faculty and senior students to do our best in the remaining few months. Great job, B4 students!
We held an after-party following the bowling tournament. It was a great opportunity to talk with members of other labs whom we don’t usually get to interact with. Just be careful not to drink too much…!
Members of the Ito and Usuki laboratories held a bowling tournament. It was a great opportunity to interact with members from other labs, and we all had a wonderful time. Congratulations to the Ito Lab for winning the tournament!
Mr. Takamori, Mr. Nakahara, and Mr. Matsubara participated in Robomech 2025, held in Yamagata. They mentioned that attending presentations from various fields was a great source of inspiration. Thank you to everyone who took part!
We held a welcome party for the new members who were assigned to our laboratory.Let's work hard together as members of the same lab from now on!
We held a party to celebrate Professor Kobayashi's promotion to full professor.All of us in the lab want to say congratulations!
