Ergonomics and Kansei engineering were applied to the development of a new mattress that can prevent pressure ulcers (PUs). A variety of lower rebound mattresses are believed to be better for heavy body pressure. The risk factors of PUs are body p...
Development of the music game for retaining cognitive and motor functions
Kansei Engineering International 11(4) 241-246 Dec 2012 [Refereed]
An electronic-mechanical game was developed for elderly and disabled people so that they could have an enjoyable way to train their cognitive functions. Because our players were not familiar with electronic games, we proposed constraints and requi...
IEICE technical report. Welfare Information technology 111(424) 25-28 Jan 2012
The authors have been developing a game for such people as the elderly and physically challenged, who are not subjected to the general personal games, to train their cognitive functions. We build a prototype and let the elderly or disabled people ...
