[Graduate School of Science and Technology] MIURA Hiroaki wins the Best Paper Award at the 23rd Asia Simulation Conference

Nov. 02, 2024

A paper submitted by MIURA Hiroaki, a second-year pre-doctoral student in the Electrical Engineering Program (KAMATA Hiroyuki Laboratory), won the Best Paper Award at the 23rd Asia Simulation Conference (organized by the ASIASIM Federation), an international conference held from September 17 to 20 at the University of Hyogo in Kobe Port Island. This year, the conference was held as a joint conference with JSST 2024, an international conference organized by the Japanese Society for Simulation Technology.


The submitted paper looks beyond the SLIM Project by JAXA, which achieved a high-precision lunar landing, and proposes a method for high-precision and high-efficiency flight position estimation by means of mapping that only uses images taken by the space probe itself and image collation for a flight to an unexplored celestial body whose map information does not exist.

ASIASIM Federation consists of simulation-related societies from five Asian countries: the China Simulation Federation (CSF), the Japanese Society for Simulation Technology (JSST), the Korean Society for Simulation (KSS), the Society of Simulation and Gaming of Singapore (SSAGSG), and the Malaysian Simulation Society (MSS).
