About

Kodai Murata is a researcher dedicated to advancing elderly care through robotics and quantitative evaluation. His primary research areas include assistive robotics, human-robot interaction, and care training technology. Murata’s major contributions center on the development of a specialized elbow joint robot designed to imitate the physical characteristics of elderly individuals, enabling care workers to practice and refine their techniques in a controlled, repeatable environment. His most-cited work, "Development and quantitative assessment of an elbow joint robot for elderly care training" (2019), has garnered 16 citations, while his foundational 2017 paper on the same topic has received 9 citations. These studies introduced a novel framework for quantitatively assessing care operations, moving beyond subjective training methods. By creating a robotic system that replicates the stiffness and range of motion of an elderly person’s elbow, Murata has provided a tangible tool for improving caregiver skills and patient safety. His work represents a significant step toward integrating robotics into healthcare education, with the potential to enhance the quality of elderly care worldwide.
