Multi-Copter Robot for infrastructure inspection
HASEGAWA Tadahiro
We develop the semi-auto multi-copter for infrastructure inspection, which is supported by Council for Science, Technology and Innovation (CSTI), Cross-ministerial Strategic Innovation Promotion Program (SIP), (Funding agency : JST). There are other research groups that carried out experiments using a multi-copter with camera for building inspection for years. It is hard to inspect infrastructure as the multi-copter did not stay at a fix position, which leads to distortion of images or videos taken by multi-copter. On the contrary, our semi-auto multi-copter can be control manually and autonomously equips with novel flexible electrostatic absorption devices. With flexible electrostatic absorption devices attached to this semi-auto multi-copter, proposed algorithm would be the best for close-range inspection using multi-copter as it ensure a fix position during infrastructure inspection thus improve close-range inspection results.

Objectives in Education and Research
The vision of the Department of Electrical Engineering is to nurture individuals with the following skills:
- Knowledge of multiculturalism and a broad historical perspective of social development in which to empower individuals with diverse perspectives.
- Able to comprehend and relate to the code of ethics provided to assist engineers to perform under a standard of professional behavior, to adhere to a clearly defined engineering ethical duty. Also, able to make a value judgment based on ethical perspectives in the course of practical implementation.
- Fully exploit mathematics, natural sciences, and information sourcing skills as a language/tool for problem solving.
- Applying ones abilities to find solutions to social needs by adopting electrical engineering and other related engineering technologies.
- To understand social needs and be able to define technological issues using ones own initiatives, and by applying expertise knowledge to design, analyze, manufacture, evaluate, and solve problems.
- Requisite communication skills for a global society.
- A persistent dedication to learn and independently address the important issues and thereby strengthen ones inquisitive nature.
- To clearly identify problems with given restrictions, draft potential plans and progress the work as planned, and also maintain a portfolio or findings or results.
- Recognizing ones own responsibility within a team, to mutually understand and advance work efficiently. Self-awareness and self-recognition on reflection.
