About
Tsuyoshi Tasaki’s research career spans two transformative domains: human-robot interaction and autonomous navigation for service robots. His early work pioneered methods for robots to dynamically communicate with multiple people simultaneously—a significant departure from the one-on-one interaction models common at the time. By mapping social cues like friendliness and interaction distance onto spatial models, he enabled humanoid robots to select and adapt to interaction partners in group settings (papers with 17 and 13 citations). In parallel, Tasaki advanced practical robotics for everyday environments. He developed a robotic shopping support system that integrates guidance robots, cart-following robots, and environmental cameras—a system cited 20 times for its collaborative autonomy. His most cited work (37 citations) introduced spatio-temporal bird’s-eye view images from multiple fish-eye cameras, dramatically reducing blind spots for teleoperated search-and-rescue robots. More recently, Tasaki has tackled retail automation with dual-arm robots for convenience store tasks (12 citations) and computer vision challenges, including PYNet for object pose estimation (10 citations) and PMOD-Net for metric-scale obstacle detection from monocular cameras (8 citations). His contributions bridge foundational human-robot interaction research with deployable solutions for service and rescue robotics.
