Our laboratory will present research outcomes at the 70th Space Sciences and Technology Conference (Ukaren 2026). Ukaren is one of Japan’s largest academic conferences covering space-related technologies.

The presentation will report on outcomes that extend vision-based navigation in the SLIM mission, with which we were previously involved. In particular, we plan to discuss alternative technologies to IMUs for self-localisation of lunar landers. Details are as follows. If you are interested and will be attending, we would be pleased to have you join the session.
