Takayuki Hoshizaki

Takayuki Hoshizaki has extensive experience in the navigation industry. From 2017 to present, they have worked as a Senior Engineer at Point One Navigation. From 2013 to 2017, they worked as a Navigation Engineer at Trimble, where they developed tightly coupled 6DOF INS/GNSS architecture to optimize vehicle-location modules with multiple sensor inputs from accelerometers, gyros, wheel ticks, and GNSS. Takayuki also developed low-cost gyro's bias/temperature compensation module. From 2004 to 2013, they worked at Alpine Electronics Research of America as a Senior Engineer and Project Engineer, where they developed loosely coupled 6DOF INS/GPS architecture to optimize vehicle-location modules with multiple sensor inputs from accelerometers, gyros, wheel ticks, and GPS. Takayuki also developed lane-recognition and lane-tracking modules for a lane departure warning (LDW) system in mass production with custom designed filter mask matrices. From 2004 to 2001, they were a Postdoctoral Researcher at Purdue University, where they designed algorithms and custom developed software in C++ to infer aircraft intent flying in the National Airspace System. Takayuki also developed software using MATLAB and SIMULINK to simulate aircraft 6 DOF motion with the ellipsoidal Earth model. From 2001 to 2004, they were a Research Assistant at Purdue University, where they designed algorithms to solve photogrammetric remote sensing problems with the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) platform. Takayuki also developed software using MATLAB and SIMULINK to simulate tightly coupled 6 DOF INS/GPS/Camera systems and the aircraft 6 DOF motion with the ellipsoidal Earth model.

Takayuki Hoshizaki received their Bachelor of Engineering (B.E.) in Aeronautics and Astronautics Engineering from Kyushu University between 1992 and 1996. Takayuki then went on to receive their Master of Engineering (M.E.) in Aeronautics and Astronautics Engineering from Kyushu University between 1996 and 1999. Finally, they completed their Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in Aeronautics and Astronautics Engineering from Purdue University between 1999 and 2003.
