Ph. D (Engeneering)Research Projects
We are engaged in research on robot and drone systems that solve challenges in areas such as infrastructure maintenance, logistics, disaster response, and tourism. We analyze social issues in Hakodate using system design and architecture design methodologies. Our goal is to develop a holistically optimized robot and drone system that benefits all relevant stakeholders.
The appeal of research
Robots and drones are capable of interacting with and performing tasks in the real world, and of measuring and observing real-world objects. We thoroughly analyze societal challenges and design the role that robots and drones will play within those challenges. We want to share the joy of seeing the robot and drone systems we create solve real-world problems with students and the local community.
Achievements
Patent
"Handling Method Confirmation Device," Toshihiro Nishizawa, Patent No. 5186886, etc., 10 registered, 20 published.
International standardization activities
"ISO 23629-5:2023 – UAS traffic management (UTM) — Part 5", published April 26, 2023, (Summary) An international standard document was developed regarding the structure of functions related to drone operation management. Nishizawa served as the project leader, collaborating with experts from various countries to compile the standard document.
National project
"NEDO 2017 2017 ~2019 2019 He has served as research director for two national projects related to drones, including "Project to Realize an Energy-Saving Society Where Robots and Drones Play an Active Role," "Development of Operation Management Systems and Collision Avoidance Technologies for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles," and "Research and Development of Operation Management Systems to Realize Safe, Secure, and Efficient Logistics and Other Services." In addition, he has participated as a researcher in three national projects related to robots.

Research Contents
Research on robotic and drone systems to solve problems in infrastructure maintenance, logistics, disaster response, tourism, etc.
Using system design and architectural design methods, we analyze social issues in Hakodate. We aim to develop holistically optimal robotics and drone systems that will enable relevant stakeholders to profess benefits.
Attractive Factors of My Research
Robots and drones can work in the real world. They can also measure and observe things in the real world. We analyze social issues and design what role robots and drones can play in those issues. I would like to share the joy of solving real-world problems with students and the local community through the robot/drone system that we have created.
