About
Hiroyasu Miura is a leading researcher in disaster response robotics and infrastructure inspection, with a focus on deploying multi-robot systems for real-world emergencies. His most impactful work centers on field experiments for tunnel disaster investigation, using teleoperated robot teams to navigate hazardous environments—a project launched under Japan’s MLIT “Robot Technology for Next-Generation Social Infrastructure” initiative. Miura has also advanced robotic search-and-rescue operations through collaborative exercises with fire departments, verifying effective robot-assisted firefighting scenarios. His contributions extend to civil infrastructure, including the robotic inspection of culvert pipes and exploration of abandoned lignite mines to assess collapse risks. With over 13 citations for his tunnel disaster field report alone, Miura’s research demonstrates practical, high-stakes applications of mobile robotics. He has also developed adaptive speed control for wheeled robots on uncertain terrain and platoon control strategies using velocity vectors, enhancing autonomous navigation in degraded environments. Miura’s work bridges robotics engineering and public safety, providing critical tools for disaster mitigation and infrastructure maintenance.
