DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, past and recent activities on space robotics res
 earch and microsat development\, conducted by Prof. Kazuya Yoshida in Toho
 ku University\, Japan and his colleagues\, are introduced. His research ac
 tivities cover dynamics and control of space robotic systems ranging from 
 orbital free-flying robots to planetary exploration rovers. The activities
  are extended to the development of university-based micro satellites and 
 also the terrestrial applications of space technology\, such as robotic re
 mote exploration for search and rescue missions. His technical contributio
 n is evidenced by many space flight and robotic missions\, such as ETS-VII
  (orbital experiments of a free-flying space robot)\, HAYABUSA / HAYABUSA-
 2 (Japanese asteroid sample return probes)\, RISING / RISING- 2 (50 kg mic
 rosatellites for science mission) and QUINCE (a mobile robot to aid in the
  Fukushima power plant incident.) The talk will highlight the university-b
 ased microsatellite development with its on-going results\, and the topics
  around lunar/planetary exploration rovers including the challenge to Goog
 le Lunar X Prize.Biography: Professor Kazuya Yoshida (http://www.astro.mec
 h.tohoku.ac.jp/e) received B.E.\, M.S. and Dr.Eng\, degrees in Mechanical 
 Engineering Science from Tokyo Institute of Technology\, Japan\, in 1984\,
  1986\, and 1990\, respectively. He served as Research Associate of Tokyo 
 Institute of Technology from 1986 to 1994\, and Visiting Scientist of Mass
 achusetts Institute of Technology\, USA in 1994. From 1995 to 2003 he was 
 appointed as Associate Professor\, and since 2003 he is Full Professor in 
 Department of Aerospace Engineering\, Tohoku University\, Japan. He also s
 erves as Director of Center of Robotics for Extreme and Uncertain Environm
 ents in Tohoku University since 2011. In addition\, he has been contributi
 ng to space robotics education for international students at International
  Space University in Strasbourg\, France (for Master of Space Studies) and
  various locations in the world (for Summer Study Programs). Member of IEE
 E since 1990\, and a committee co- chair of the Robotics and Automation So
 ciety (RAS) Technical Committee (TC) on Space Robotics\, since 2007.
