Bringing unprecedented robots into practical use and contributing to problem-solving in extreme environments.
The Extreme Environment Robot Research Institute (HERO Lab) is an organization aimed at the research and development of decommissioning robots that can operate in environments where humans cannot enter, such as the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant. Founded in 2020, it is led by Professor Shigeo Hirose, an honorary professor at Tokyo Institute of Technology and the first recipient of the Pioneer in Robotics and Automation Award from the IEEE Robotics & Automation Society, under the auspices of the Hakusan Industrial Group of Tokyo Electric Power Company. We aim to solve significantly difficult and diverse problems that no one in the world has yet found solutions for, contributing to society through creative robot development. *For more details, please check the related links below or contact us.*

basic information
What HERO Lab. Aims For 1. We will proactively challenge the development of various decommissioning robots necessary for the decommissioning work at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant as a member of the Tokyo Electric Power Company Group. 2. Since the Tokyo Electric Power Company Group's power business requires robots for maintaining and repairing large infrastructure, as well as assistive devices for the workers performing these tasks, we will actively engage in the development of these devices. 3. Not limited to these, we will freely conceive and actively develop devices that could be beneficial to society, such as the "Optical Sensor Seismometer System" using optical seismic sensors provided by Hakusan Industry, and the "HERO Inner Mask" that makes breathing easier when wearing a mask. 4. HERO Lab. places importance on collaboration with academia and will actively present the results of our research and development at academic conferences.

Company information
I want to create a company that chooses and implements things that society will need in the future, even though they may be difficult to commercialize in the short term. To achieve this, it is crucial to gather people with deep insights into society and technology, particularly in specific, sometimes very narrow, fields. A vital role of Hakusan is to support those individuals.
