Academic Degree
Ph.D.
Field of Specialization
Erogonomics for all ages and abilities
Outline Activities
I investigate human beings, products, and life environment from the view point of ergonomics and exercise physiology. Our special interests are to scientifically design devices with universal designs, that help and assist individuals with physical disabilities and the Elderly, preventing falls, creating a barrier-free environment, and promoting a healthy lifestyle for them. I have been and are collaborating with some private and large Japanese companies, with regards to achieving the above mentioned goals.
