ProfessorI conduct research to contribute to health and medicine by utilizing image processing, computer vision, and virtual reality technologies. My research focuses on various areas, including the development of augmented reality (AR) technology to support high-difficulty surgical operations, computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) technology, and virtual reality (VR) technology to enhance the efficiency of medical training for doctors. Additionally, I am involved in the research and development of technology using images and optics to measure biological information, such as respiration and gaze. By collaborating with physicians from different medical specialties, I am committed to developing new technologies that can promptly address the challenges in clinical settings.
Recent Topics of Interest: Cross Reality (XR), Deep Learning, Metaverse

Associate ProfessorI aim to achieve the measurement of peripheral circulation hemodynamics using a simple color camera. Peripheral circulation hemodynamics are significantly related to both the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, which means that this measurement also contributes to evaluating the balance of the autonomic nervous system. By visualizing the results obtained with the developed camera and providing feedback to the subjects, I strive to implement this technology in healthcare settings.

ProfessorI am researching fundamental and applied robotics technologies to develop systems that enhance healthcare and well-being. My focus is on creating human-oriented systems that account for the dynamic characteristics of medical robot users, the objects they interact with, their operating environments, the modes of medical intervention, and the interactions among these elements.
Recent Topics of Interest:
Technology to support home healthcare, including home medical and nursing care, and home rehabilitation
Motto in Research or in Life:
Just like a boat sailing against the current, if you don’t move forward, you’ll go backward. (It is essential to continuously make efforts and always strive to move forward without neglecting diligence.)
Hobby / Holiday:
Working and watching sports
