My research centres around using interactive technologies to explore different types of sensory simulations to facilitate empathy, understanding, and better assistive design for people with disabilities. My project Dementia Eyes is exhibited at Fukuoka City Dementia Friendly Centre: https://dementia-friendly-center.city.fukuoka.lg.jp/

In my pursuit of a career as a Design or User Experience (UX) Researcher, I am poised to engage in a stimulating amalgamation of creativity, technological proficiency, and a deep understanding of human psychology. These roles necessitate a profound commitment to discerning and addressing user needs, thereby informing the development of both engaging and practical designs.

後期博士課程修了後は、今行っている研究の社会実装を兼ねた起業を行い、社会貢献に繋げたいと考えています。私は静岡県沼津市において、市役所や地域おこし協力隊、地域のNPOや商店と連携して研究を進めています。この連携を今後も活かし、各々がもつ能力を活かせる環境を整備して、地域内の人々が持つ能力の循環型社会構築を目指します。その後、この循環から収益を得られるビジネス化を検討します。

This study introduces a design paradigm centered on augmenting rhythms, augmenting synchronization with the body for improved mental health and abilities, promoting a healthier lifestyle. Employing the biofeedback loop design, I enhance personal interactions with intelligent artifacts, utilizing physiological sensing (heart rate, skin conductance, respiratory rate, muscle activities, etc.) to design visual, audio, and haptic feedback. This research emphasizes application scenarios like stress relief and human skill training during musical activities. Consider pursuing a career in Human-Computer Interaction, specializing in physiological or affective computing, to innovate and apply biofeedback technologies for enhanced well-being, mental health, and performance across domains like UX design, health-tech product management, clinical applications, entrepreneurship, or education.

I am researching to develop smart manipulatives for kids learning , especially the concepts that are difficult to grasp. Since I design manipulatives based on the researched framework so they can be easily incorporated with in the curriculum of public and private school, so one direction could be to open up a start-up business.

My research focuses on exploring the intersection of technology and textile innovation. with revolves around innovation of fabric using the hacking practice approach. I aim to unlock new dimensions in fabric manipulation, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible, and with aim to become a lecturer and also researcher related to the topic in the future. Currently doing a research exploring potential of textile traditional technique with advanced technology.
