I am currently working as an assistant professor at Kyushu University. I am interested in creating a gadget for understanding the mechanism of human mind and behavior in social interaction, sports etc. I am also interestd in gesture recognition using machine learning and wearable sensors. I have the publications at ACII(2022), TVCG(2022), ISMAR(2020 *2), TEI(2020), AHs(2017,2018,2020, 2023), IEEE VR (2017), VRST (2017), MobileHCI (2017), TiiS(2017), IUI(2016, 2023), UbiComp(2015) etc.
