Artificial intelligence and virtual reality-based kansei, emotional, and cognitive science and engineering

Abstract

In modern Japanese society, managing a super-aged society is an urgent task, and high demands exist for ensuring safety and comfort. Hence, the elucidation of human cognition, judgment, and behavior is important. This paper introduces a new trend of approaches, including the engineering approach to kansei and cognition. Various technologies such as noninvasive living body information measurement, artificial intelligence, internet of things, virtual reality, and human-machine interface have been integrated, and the new kansei, emotional, and cognitive science and engineering have become a basic technology for improving quality of life.
