AboutAbout the lab
Designing dignified quality of life (QOL)
The Yamauchi Lab (Image Process Lab) studies the design and design theory of products and environments that support older adults and people with disabilities.
In medical and welfare fields, the lab believes that comprehensive design is required, one that maximizes QOL rather than merely compensating for lost function.
Taking life as a whole as its subject, the lab systematically conceives how technologies that support daily living relate to the environments surrounding them.
Its areas of expertise are assistive devices, living spaces, and implementation science.
