Detail

Course Summary

The objective of this research lab is to analyze haptic phenomena in scientific methods.

In the 2021 Spring semester, we have learned basic statistics, conducted literature reading, and research design practices. 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).



TOUCH LAB 1 (TOUCH FAB) focuses on how you express haptic feelings using multiple media, and TOUCH LAB 2 (TOUCH SCIENCE) focuses on physical measurements and their corresponding sensory evaluation.
