BIOGRAPHY
I am a Specially Appointed Assistant Professor (ITF) at the Institute of Systems and Information Engineering, University of Tsukuba. I develop sensory intervention technologies—tactile, visual, and multisensory—to alleviate pain and stress, with the broader aim of enhancing human well-being.
My current work spans inflatable wearable robotics, VR-based perceptual modulation, and tactile foundation models, alongside cyber-physical systems that deliver multisensory feedback simultaneously across physical and virtual spaces.
I have been a member of FTLab at the University of Tsukuba since 2015, where I completed my B.E., M.Eng., and Ph.D. under the supervision of Prof. Fumihide Tanaka. I received the Best Student Robot Design Award at the ACM/IEEE HRI Student Design Competition (2021) and the Dean's Award from the University of Tsukuba (2025).
筑波大学システム情報系の特任助教(ITF)です。触覚・視覚・多感覚を活用したsensory intervention技術を開発し、痛みやストレスを和らげ、human well-beingの向上に貢献することを目指しています。
現在は、空気圧式wearable robot、VRによる知覚操作、tactile foundation modelに取り組んでおり、物理空間と仮想空間をまたいで多感覚フィードバックを同時提示するcyber-physical systemにも関心があります。
2015年より筑波大学FTLabに所属し、田中文英 教授のご指導のもと学士・修士・博士(工学)を取得しました。2021年にACM/IEEE HRI Student Design CompetitionにてBest Student Robot Design Award、2025年に筑波大学Dean's Awardを受賞。
츠쿠바대학 시스템정보계 특임조교수(ITF)입니다. 촉각·시각·다감각을 활용한 sensory intervention 기술을 개발해 통증과 스트레스를 완화하고, 나아가 human well-being 향상에 기여하는 것을 목표로 합니다.
현재는 공압식 웨어러블 로봇, VR 기반 지각 변조, tactile foundation model 연구를 진행하고 있으며, 물리·가상 공간을 가로질러 다감각 피드백을 동시에 제공하는 cyber-physical system도 함께 다루고 있습니다.
2015년 학부생 때부터 현재까지 츠쿠바대학 FTLab에 소속되어 있으며, 다나카 후미히데 교수님의 지도 아래 학사·석사·박사(공학) 학위를 취득했습니다. 2021년 ACM/IEEE HRI Student Design Competition에서 Best Student Robot Design Award, 2025년 츠쿠바대학 Dean's Award를 수상했습니다.
