Theme
Human Information Engineering
Human movement is determined in real time based on various senses. However, we are not aware of this process. In human information engineering, we mainly use psychophysics to observe the phenomenon by measuring the relationship between human sensation and movement, and to understand the phenomenon by applying mathematical models to it. By using illusions to intervene in the sensory-motor processing process that takes place under the conscious mind, it is possible to induce behavior that leads to support without the person being aware of it. Furthermore, we are researching methods to predict near-future movements from subconscious movements.
