The lab is a biomedical measurement lab that researches technologies and devices supporting quality of life.
AboutAbout the lab
Technology that supports quality of life and dignity
The Biomeasurement Systems Lab researches assistive technologies and devices that help people live while maintaining a high QOL and ROL, in addition to sustaining life.
The lab develops devices that measure energy expenditure and physical activity, which are needed to maintain health and prevent obesity.
It also develops diagnostic systems that use electricity, magnetism, heat flow, and similar means.
The lab also develops welfare and caregiving systems that incorporate amusement elements into rehabilitation training equipment.
Key terms
- QOL
- Short for Quality of Life. A concept that expresses the quality of a person's life
- ROL
- Short for Respect of Living. Refers to living with dignity. The lab lists it alongside QOL
- Energy expenditure
- The amount of energy the body uses for activity and to sustain life. It is related to maintaining health and preventing obesity
ResearchResearch themes
The Biomeasurement Systems Lab researches assistive technologies and devices that help people live while maintaining a high QOL and ROL, not just sustaining life. Its scope ranges from measurement devices and diagnostic technologies to welfare and caregiving systems.
*Illustrative imageMeasurement Devices and Systems That Support Daily Life
The lab develops devices that measure energy expenditure and physical activity, diagnostic systems that use electricity, magnetism, and heat flow, and rehabilitation training equipment that incorporates amusement elements.
*Illustrative imageDeveloping a Wearable Pulse Wave Monitor
The lab studies non-contact measurement methods using light and ultrasound from the fundamentals, and currently focuses mainly on developing a wearable pulse wave monitor for biological information monitoring. Based on the idea that visible light can capture blood-flow information from the surface layer of the skin, it makes use of that characteristic.
