Robotics
F-REI’s five research areas
In Fukushima, which experienced a complex disaster, F-REI conducts research and development of robots and drones that are able to function in the harsh environments occurring during reactor decommissioning work and at natural disaster sites.
F-REI will develop radiation, water and heat resistance high mobility to conduct research on intelligence to realize autonomous control and swarm control, and conduct research on functional expansion to enhance the sensory functions of living organisms, etc. F-REI will leverage the achievements of this R&D to promote the development of high mobility robots that can operate in harsh environments such as nuclear plant decommissioning, disasters, and outer space. Further engage in the development of high-function drones that can carry large payloads and achieve long flight, and the development of autonomous mobile robots, etc.
