About

Kenshiro Mitsugi is a robotics researcher specializing in omnidirectional mobile platforms and indoor positioning systems. His work centers on developing Moving Omnidirectional Access Point (MOAP) robots—self-standing, agile robots that can navigate complex indoor environments while serving as dynamic wireless access points. Mitsugi’s major contributions include a novel indoor position detecting system that leverages mean BLE RSSI (Bluetooth Low Energy Received Signal Strength Indicator) to track a moving MOAP robot, achieving real-time localization with high accuracy. His most cited paper (2021, 11 citations) details this system, while earlier works (2020, 10 and 9 citations) describe the robot’s control interfaces and implementation. Mitsugi also explored human-robot interaction through a finger movement capturing device for robot control (2021, 7 citations). His analytical work on optimizing the number of MOAP robots for wireless mesh networks using Elbow and Silhouette theories (2020, 2 citations each) demonstrates his interest in network efficiency. With a total of 41 citations across six papers, Mitsugi’s research bridges robotics, wireless communication, and human-robot interfaces, offering practical solutions for autonomous indoor navigation and connectivity.
