Application of Olfactory Display to Medical Care
 |
 |
| Professor OKADA, Kenichi Department of Information and Computer Science |
||
|
Currently, health checkup examination includes the checking of sight and hearing but not of the olfactory sense. Therefore, we are now developing an olfactory checkup method using the olfactory display we invented.

Studies on the Problems on the US Method for Evaluating Properties of Sunscreen Formulations
  |
 |
| Professor ASAKURA, Kouichi Department of Applied Chemistry |
||
|
In US, no warning statements are required on sunscreen products for their risk of skin cancer if they are proved to be BROAD SPECTRUM. We have found a serious problem that simple manipulation of coating procedure of sunscreen formulations made them meet the standard for BROAD SPECTRUM.

Surface Engineering for Biomaterials
 |
 |
| Professor KOMOTORI, Jun Department of Mechanical Engineering |
||
|
In recent years, metals are used as implants for medical treatment and are placed inside human body for a long time. To satisfy safeness in long-term usage, there have been numerous approaches toward such materials. Here are some of the new surface modification processes developed recently.

Monitoring System Using Radio Waves
 |
 |
| Professor OTSUKI, Tomoaki Department of Information and Computer Science |
||
|
We introduce our new monitoring and localization system based on radio waves. The system is applicable to monitor elderly person living alone. It can also monitor such as bathroom and restroom without invading privacy.

Nanoscale Manipulation
 |
 |
| Associate Professor KATSURA, Seiichiro Department of System Design Engineering |
||
|
Katsura Laboratory has developed a "nano manipulation system" that transmits manipulated force sensation of a nanoscale object to an operator. We aim to apply this technology in medical treatment and production process.

Understanding the Brain, Utilizing the Brain —Development of Neuroscience-based Rehabilitation Devices—  |
 |
| Assistant Professor USHIBA, Junichi Department of Biosciences and Informatics |
||
|
In collaboration with medical faculty and hospitals, we research the mechanism of how the brain controls our body. The findings are resolved to the educational activity as computer graphic animation archives, and they are applied to develop "thought-controlled orthosis" as a tool for functional recovery from hemiplegia due to stroke.
