About

Dr. Hikaru Tetsui is a pioneering roboticist whose work centers on advancing rescue robotics and disaster response technology. His major contribution lies in the development of the multifunctional rescue robot FUHGA2, a highly mobile platform designed for both search-and-rescue operations and infrastructure inspection. The FUHGA2 integrates main crawlers with four sub-crawlers for exceptional terrain navigation, a long six-axis arm for dexterous manipulation, and advanced sensing capabilities for locating survivors in rubble. This robot was rigorously evaluated at the World Robot Summit 2018, demonstrating its real-world viability. With 27 citations, this work has become a foundational reference in the field of emergency robotics. Dr. Tetsui’s achievements include not only the technical design of a versatile robotic system but also its successful deployment in high-stakes scenarios, bridging the gap between laboratory innovation and practical humanitarian aid. His research continues to inspire new generations of engineers to build robots that save lives.
