Research areas

We are conducting ”research for support medical field” and ”research for support human life” using AI, IoT, and Kansei measurement technologies. In research for support medical field, we are conducting research on quantitative evaluation of surgical performance and product evaluation of medical devices based on Kansei measurement. In research for support human life, we are conducting research on remote vital sign sensing and stress monitoring based on multi-wavelength facial imaging.
