On Saturday, August 2nd and Sunday, August 3rd, the "Tsukuruto! 8: A Manufacturing Exhibition Anyone Can Participate in" was held in Building 12 of our university, with members from our Electrical Engineering Research Department, Robot Workshop, Sadakata Laboratory in the FacultyFaculty of Science and Engineering, and Model Enthusiasts Club participating.
"Tsukuruto!" is a manufacturing-themed exchange event where universities, companies, and creators gather to exhibit and present the latest technologies and works. The participating teams from our university were able to showcase the results of their daily research and activities, and it was a valuable opportunity to gain new ideas and inspiration through interactions with visitors.
The Department of Electrical Engineering introduced its campus illumination efforts and set up an electronics experience corner, which was visited by a wide range of visitors, from children to adults.
The Robot Workshop exhibited the robot used in the second round of the NHK Student Robocon 2025 competition, and planned an experience where visitors could actually shoot a basketball using a controller, as well as operate a bipedal robot. Visitors were amazed by the precise movements of the robot and enjoyed operating it.
The Sadakata Laboratory held a keychain production experience using semiconductor technology under the theme of "DIY organic semiconductor devices." In addition, they exhibited works from the Techno Art Project, which is an annual joint project between Faculty of Science and Engineering and Engineering and Faculty of Art and Design, conveying a unique worldview that combines science and art.
The Model Enthusiasts' Club exhibited many of the plastic models and figures they have made. Representative Ikono-san (4th year, Department Faculty of Commerce Department of Business and Marketing /Sakuragaoka High School) said, "We are a group of students from the humanities, science and engineering, and arts. This time, we showed not only pre-made plastic models and figures, but also works made from cardboard, 3D printers, and ceramics. We are happy to have the opportunity to present the results of our daily work at an event like this."
Our university will continue to actively support activities that foster students' creativity.
