About

Dr. Yuu Hasegawa is a pioneering researcher in the field of human-robot interaction and assistive robotics, with a particular focus on functional electrical stimulation (FES) and bilateral control systems. His most cited work, "Bilateral Control of Elbow and Shoulder Joints Using Functional Electrical Stimulation Between Humans and Robots" (2020, 17 citations), addresses a critical challenge in remote-control technologies: the discomfort and complexity caused by traditional force transmission mechanisms in master systems. Hasegawa’s major contribution lies in developing innovative bilateral control techniques that bypass these mechanical constraints by directly stimulating human muscles via FES, enabling more intuitive and natural teleoperation. This approach has significant implications for rehabilitation robotics, prosthetics, and human augmentation, offering a seamless interface between humans and machines. His work has been recognized for its potential to enhance the quality of life for individuals with motor impairments, and his research continues to push the boundaries of how robots can assist and interact with the human body. With a growing citation impact, Hasegawa is establishing himself as a key figure in the convergence of neuroscience, robotics, and biomedical engineering.
