W5: Affective Haptics as a Direct Link to Emotion
We discuss the new possibilities of Affective haptics based on the emerging needs and seeds. The link from haptics to brainstem is still an uncultivated area in science, but we are beginning to have tools to clarify it. Technological mental support and encouragement using the link are recent strong needs of people. In this workshop, top-tier researchers from medical to application fields are invited.
This workshop is supported by JST CREST Symbiotic Interaction.

Our aim of research is to develop a novel ECoG-BMI system to be applied for paralyzed patients as a communication tool. We have a large data set of ECoG simultaneously recorded human life-log such as visual stimulus, auditory stimulus, motion tracking and thoughts. We are developing a model to decode these life-log data using some novel machine learning techniques to apply it as online communication tool. Also, our focus is to understand how the brain adapt the decoder or change the brain activities using the BMI system.
我々は重度麻痺患者のための意思伝達装置として、新しい皮質脳波BMIの開発を目指しています。特に、人が見たり聞いたり、動いたり、考えたりする内容のライフログと脳信号とのビッグデータに対して、深層学習等の新しい技術を適用し脳情報解読技術を開発します。また、これをオンラインで用いることで意思伝達装置とすることを目指します。さらに、このようなBMIを使うことで、脳活動の可塑的変化について理解を深めます。
We had a seminar of Dr. Robert Gaunt and Mr. Nathan Copeland from Pittsburgh University, USA.
Nathan has motor paralysis in his limbs due to spinal cord injury and has no sensation below his thumb. The team, led by Dr. Robert, performed an operation to implant some electrodes into Nathan’s brain to decode his motor intentions to control a robot and to stimulate his sensory cortex to induce artificial sensations. Such technology is called Bidirectional BCI.
For the seminar, more than 100 people came. We could share the latest findings on the bidirectional BCI technology among researchers and Japanese patients with spinal cord injuries. And we discussed various issues to realize the clinical application of the BCI and how the electrical stimulation of the central nervous system will improve the patients’ lives.
We deeply appreciate Mr. Nathan and Dr. Robert for coming to Japan and giving these wonderful opportunities!
This seminar is supported by the Japan Science and Technology Agency, JST ERATO.
