About
Sousuke Nakamura is a leading researcher in mobile robotics, wireless power transmission, and augmented reality (AR) for remote assistance. His work bridges the gap between autonomous navigation and practical energy solutions. Nakamura’s most cited paper (34 citations) introduces a PID controller for stable tracking of non-holonomic wheeled mobile robots, establishing a foundational control framework. He further advanced rough-terrain traversal with a wheeled robot featuring a movable center of mass (22 citations), a concept critical for planetary exploration. In wireless charging, Nakamura pioneered the integration of passive position sensing via coupled magnetic resonances (23 citations), enabling simultaneous charging and localization—a key innovation for efficient energy management. His recent work on AR/MR behavior navigation systems for telexistence (17 citations) addresses the growing need for remote guidance in post-COVID economies, while his graph-based SLAM using architectural floor plans (8 citations) offers a novel solution to map distortion without loop closure. With over 120 total citations, Nakamura’s interdisciplinary contributions continue to shape autonomous systems, from energy logistics to human-robot interaction.
