Associate ProfessorI aim to achieve the measurement of peripheral circulation hemodynamics using a simple color camera. Peripheral circulation hemodynamics are significantly related to both the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, which means that this measurement also contributes to evaluating the balance of the autonomic nervous system. By visualizing the results obtained with the developed camera and providing feedback to the subjects, I strive to implement this technology in healthcare settings.
