We are regret to inform that we decided to cancel the SXSW 2020 due to the current Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak. Students’ safety is the top priority for us. The planned demonstrations of our pipeline inspection robots have been all canceled.

A demonstration of the latest pipeline robot will be held at the South by Southwest (SXSW 2020) exhibition in Austin, Texas, March 15-18, 2020.
In collaboration with the Food Management Department, we will propose new possibilities not only for infrastructure inspection but also as a transport robot.

EcoPro 2019 was held at Big Sight in Tokyo from December 5 to 7, 2019!

This event was held so that many people could know that companies, universities and local organizations are working to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) adopted at the UN Summit.

At this exhibition, 100 studies from Ritsumeikan University were chosen as SDGs initiatives, and 11 special exhibitions were introduced and demonstrated at the booth.

Lecturer Kakogawa (currently at Kawamura Lab), Oka (D1), Kushiya (M1), Sera (M1) and Ota (B4) from our lab participated in this exhibition, and exhibited an in-pipe inspection robot.

In addition, a workshop for elementary and junior high school students was also held, and lecturer Kakogawa explained the snake-type robots to the children who came.
