Detail

Course Summary

The objective of this research lab is to analyze haptic phenomena in daily life.
In 2020, we have learned basic statistics and multivariate analysis. Based on this background, we would like to conduct research projects on a group basis. Senior students are supposed to lead a project, and junior students would support the research project (but junior students can add some of the research items in the main project).
