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.
