Summary
Rikiya Yamamoto is a seasoned research engineer and software architect with over 12 years building edge AI and IoT systems, currently serving as Physical AI主任研究員 in Yokohama. He blends hands-on expertise in LPWA (LoRaWAN), embedded FPGA/MPU/GPU platforms, and reactive Scala ecosystems (Akka, Spark, sbt) to deliver intelligent edge devices and sensor-to-cloud pipelines. A proven team leader and architect, he has led development of production Scala systems, cross-platform client apps, and XR integrations (HoloLens, iOS) while maintaining strong I18N and web services (REST/SOAP) discipline. His background spans academic research appointments and industry R&D, giving him an uncommon mix of applied research (RL/DL/GPGPU) and pragmatic productization experience. Colleagues value his ability to bridge low-level firmware (RISC-V/ARM) and high-level reactive services to shorten the path from prototype to scalable deployment.
