About

Yutaro Kyono is a pioneering researcher in human-robot interaction and interspace communication, whose work redefines how we connect across physical and digital realms. His most notable contribution is the development of MetaPo, a groundbreaking robotic meta portal introduced in 2022, which has already garnered 5 citations for its innovative approach. MetaPo is a mobile robot equipped with a spherical display, 360° media input/output, and robotic hands, designed to create a unified model of communication between disparate spaces—whether physical-physical, cyber-cyber, or cyber-physical. This system enables panoramic, multi-user interactions, effectively dissolving boundaries between remote environments. Kyono’s research focuses on bridging the gap between tangible and virtual worlds, offering novel solutions for telepresence and collaborative work. His work on MetaPo stands out for its ambition to transform how we perceive and engage with remote presence, positioning him as a forward-thinking voice in robotics and mediated communication. For students and researchers, Kyono’s contributions exemplify the exciting potential of robots as portals for seamless, immersive interspace dialogue.
