Human Information Science Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that interprets people's mental and physical states from their biological data.
AboutAbout the lab
Interpreting mental and physical states from biological data.
The Human Information Science Lab studies the measurement and analysis of biological data, such as faint electrical signals from the heart and muscles, brain waves, respiration, and body and eye movements.
Biological data can reveal changes in mental and physical states that people themselves do not notice, as well as abnormalities such as disease.
Beyond simply measuring data, the lab places importance on clarifying its features and structure and discovering how it can be used.
The lab aims to apply the knowledge and technology it obtains to a wide range of fields, such as culture and the arts, society and welfare, medicine and health, sports, and education.
Key terms
- Biological data
- Information obtained from the human body, such as electrical signals from the heart and muscles, brain waves, respiration, body and eye movements, and daily behavior patterns
- Brain waves
- Faint electrical signals produced by brain activity. They are one type of biological data.
- Wearable biosensor
- A device worn on the body, like a smartwatch, that measures signals from the body
ResearchResearch themes
The lab aims to measure the various signs that the human body emits as biological data, clarify their features and structure, and put them to use. With advances in wearable biosensor technology such as smartwatches, measuring biological data has become much more accessible.
