Toward a society where people and robots can coexist at high level andfruitefull lives, we are developing various type of service robots such as
welfare robots that perform walk training and physical support, harvest
support robots, intelligent lighting systems, etc. And we are conducting
researches on human-robot symbiosis technologies based on theweak-robots concept, socally assistive robot technologies, and novel
acutuators using ultrasonic motor.

Toshihiko Eki
Director
The Electronics-Inspired Interdisciplinary Research Institute (EIIRIS) was established in October2010 as Toyohashi University of Technology s ﬁrst research institute to explore the technologicalsciences and their applications. More speciﬁcally, EIIRIS s objectives are to develop interdisciplinary
research of smart sensing, photonics information devices, and other innovative electronics technology and their advanced application in ﬁelds such as robotics, telecommunications, the life sciences,
agricultural engineering, environmental science, and disaster prevention.
In April 2019, EIIRIS expanded its research structure from the existing two research disciplines toﬁve, signaling the start of research and development in new interdisciplinary.

We have realized various devices
utilizing accumulated design andfabrication technologies for sensors,
MEMS and LSI that have been highly
regarded worldwide. We will promote thecreation and demonstration of innovative
sensors and MEMS devices while
collaborating this strength with materials
research institutes and applied research institutes.

Innovative Applied Sensing Technology
Our research interests include humancognitive functions and mechanisms
behind the interpersonal communicationand human-robot interaction by utilizing
multidimensional information,e.g. humanbehavior or brain activities, acquired bymultimodal advanced sensors.

Advanced Agricultural Engineering
Focusing on the development of sensor-based plant diagnosis
techniques (Chlorophyll fluorescence imaging, volatile organic
compound measurement, photosynthesis and transpiration

measurement etc.) for agricultural
production under environmental control
such as intelligent greenhouse and plantfactory.

Advanced Environmental Sensing
Our group is developing low-noise
Josephson junctions and highly sensitive
SQUID magnetometers for applicationof nondestructive inspection and ultralow field MRI. We are also studying
optimization of terahertz-wave sensor
arrays such as microwave kinetic
inductance detectors.

Advanced Life Sciences

Our research focuses on understanding
cellular and molecular basis that underliesinter- and intraspecies interactions,behavior, and neuronal function oforganisms, along with developing
innovative electronic devices.

This center was established for applying a range of our engineering
technologies to agriculture. The center members, full-time speciﬁcallyappointed professors as well as researchers in diﬀerent departments, arecollaborating and conducting research into agriculture, sensing systems,
biotechnology, and the environment.
We are also developing human resources for agriculture by conducting
three training courses, the Frontier Plant Factory Manager, the Frontier
Course in IT for Land-utilizing Farming, and the Training Program for Sixth
Sector Industrialization, respectively.
