Hironao Takeda (武田 博直) joined Sega in April 1988 after a five year stint at CSK.[1] Among the original developers of the Sega AM5 division alongside Hiroshi Uemura, one of the first projects Takeda was involved with was the AS-1 motion simulator.[2] At some point during his time in the division, he became a Development Manager.[3]
In 1993, Takeda contributed to a lecture about the history, current state, and potential future prospects of Sega.[4] After this, he wrote articles about attraction development based on his time at AM5 and work on projects like the AS-1.[5]
Since leaving Sega in 2011,[1] Takeda's writing about his time at the company and the projects he worked on has been republished publicly in a number of outlets, including his own blog.
