About
Yuya Omae is a dedicated educator and researcher in mechatronics and engineering education, with a particular focus on hands-on, cross-cultural learning environments. His most-cited work, "Execution and Evaluation of Mechatronics Education Using Line Tracing Robots" (2016), exemplifies his innovative approach: he designed a course where students—including mixed cohorts of Japanese and Brazilian foreign students—build their own line tracing robots from scratch. By requiring students to source electrical and mechanical components from Tokyo’s Akihabara district, Omae fosters practical skills in design, procurement, and assembly. This paper, with 1 citation, reflects his commitment to experiential learning and international collaboration. Omae’s contributions lie in bridging theoretical mechatronics with real-world application, emphasizing student autonomy and cultural exchange. His work has implications for inclusive, project-based STEM education, demonstrating how robotics can serve as a universal language for diverse learners. While his citation count is modest, his impact is felt in the classroom, where he empowers students to become creators rather than passive recipients of knowledge.
