In 2020, coronavirus infections quickly spread throughout the world. The coronavirus has drastically changed our values and common sense. For example, working remotely (remote work) became a familiar concept. Many people do not fix one location where they conduct their work. The prevalence of remote work has made it possible for us to perform tasks in person without going to the workplace. Remote work has freed us from geographical and time constraints. It has also allowed us to choose where we live freely. Remote work has allowed us to use the time we spend traveling to and from work to do other activities. Remote work offers a variety of benefits.

On the other hand, remote work is difficult for some jobs, such as essential work. Even in jobs where remote work is possible, problems such as communication breakdowns have become apparent. Remote work also has disadvantages.

We aim to solve these issues in remote work.



"Telepresence technology": This technology understands changes in the local environment and local information necessary for operations from a remote location.



"Embodied-knowledge-understanding technology": We are researching methods to systematize and digitally archive body behavior generated from knowledge and experience.
