I am pleased to share that my scientific photograph, “Smoked air-flow of modified Bernoulli-based gripper for grasping textile materials,” was selected as a finalist in the Wiki Science Competition 2025.

The image illustrates the airflow-modified Bernoulli grippers designed to handle textile materials. The proposed designs reduce turbulence-induced vibrations by preventing or redirecting airflow away from the gripper–material interaction zone.

It was a great pleasure to host Dr. Daniel Seita (Assistant Professor at the University of Southern California) who gave an invited seminar talk “Representations for Dexterous Robot Manipulation” for our Robotic Manipulation Lab (Osaka University), led by Prof. Kensuke Harada. A great discussion was held with key questions raised by Prof. Weiwei Wan and the students. Such exchanges of ideas in one area of robotics knowledge inspire further work and collaboration.
