In June 2016, ROBOSTEP represented Waseda University to take part in NHK Student Contest and won first place. By winning the national contest, we were privileged to present Japan in the Abu Asia-Pacific Robot Contest that took place in Indonesia where participants gathered from about 20 different countries across Asia to compete in badminton using the robots each team had designed and programmed.<\/p>\n<p>During the contest in Indonesia, I had the opportunity to interact with other participants from other countries. Through such interaction and exchange, I came to realize that the design concept, materials, processing methods, production environment of robots differed largely from each country. It was an eye-opening experience to learn that each robot had its own uniqueness that seemed to reflect\u00a0respective cultural and ethical diversities of each country.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-2 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-2 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 50%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-2 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-2 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-2' class='gallery galleryid-53438 gallery-columns-2 gallery-size-thumbnail'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/top\/en\/news\/53438\/attachment\/p8233760-360x270'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"360\" height=\"270\" src=\"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/top\/en\/assets\/uploads\/2017\/08\/P8233760-360x270.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-2-53440\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-2-53440'>\n\t\t\t\tRobots competing in badminton\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/top\/en\/news\/53438\/attachment\/757543770840edeb7aa18ef810947d8c-610x407'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"360\" height=\"270\" src=\"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/top\/en\/assets\/uploads\/2017\/08\/757543770840edeb7aa18ef810947d8c-610x407-360x270.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-2-53439\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-2-53439'>\n\t\t\t\tGroup photo at Abu Asia-Pacific Robot Contest\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>Nevertheless, all participants shared something in common and that was the love for robots.

Towards to end of my studies abroad, I did an internship with a NPO organization. Somehow, the jokes that I made received very well responses from the Americans around me. As such, I decided to try performing as a comedian again, which I did when I was in high school. As Americans and Japanese have different sense of humor, I have to think of even better jokes that will appeal to the Americans. \u201cStand-up comedy\u201d, which comedians perform only with a mic is the style and termed used in the U.S.. Turning my background as a Japanese to my advantage, I participated in their showcase. Even though it was my first time participating, I received very good responses, way better than what I had expected. It really boosted my confident level and made me realized the importance of conquering all difficulties with bravery at all times. Reflecting on these experiences, I began to think about the career I want in future. Aerospace is an industry with strict rules and regulations and because of that, it is very important to step out of one\u2019s comfort zone and repeatedly challenge oneself. I hope I will be able to continue challenging myself, and make new creations in that business world that is not restricted to the norms that we are so used to.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-12 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-12 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 50%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-12 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-12 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-12' class='gallery galleryid-53438 gallery-columns-2 gallery-size-thumbnail'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/top\/en\/news\/53438\/attachment\/dsc_0798-610x343'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"360\" height=\"270\" src=\"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/top\/en\/assets\/uploads\/2017\/08\/DSC_0798-610x343-360x270.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-12-53450\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-12-53450'>\n\t\t\t\tParty at Bellevue College\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/top\/en\/news\/53438\/attachment\/dsc_1336-610x343'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"360\" height=\"270\" src=\"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/top\/en\/assets\/uploads\/2017\/08\/DSC_1336-610x343-360x270.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-12-53449\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-12-53449'>\n\t\t\t\tMe performing comedy on stage\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\">This article is based on the interviews conducted with respective\u00a0students in 2016.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Waseda Weekly, an online magazine of Waseda University, interviewed three students from different faculties\u00a0to [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":53451,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[81,117],"tags":[175],"class_list":["post-53438","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","category-topic","tag-students-en"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/top\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/53438","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/top\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/top\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/top\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/top\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=53438"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/top\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/53438\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/top\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/53451"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/top\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=53438"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/top\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=53438"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/top\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=53438"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
