We presented our paper at ICCHP-AAAATE 2022!
International Conference on Computer Assistance for Persons with Disabilities:
“Joint International Conference on Digital Inclusion, Assistive Technology & Accessibility – ICCHP-AAAATE 2022” , as a “Science Track Contribution” of the plenary session “Extended Mouth/Tongue Gesture Recognition Module for People with Severe Motor Dysfunction” gave an oral presentation.
It was held at the Polytechnic University of Milan, located on the shores of Lake Lecco, north of Milan.

It was held on June 15, 2022 at the Kashiwazaki City Cultural Hall Alforet in Kashiwazaki City, Niigata Prefecture.
＃024U Innovation Day 2022 in Kashiwazaki is hosted by Dr. Ishikita, Director of Medical Device Innovation Laboratory, Clinical Research Department, National Hospital Organization Niigata Hospital.
Dr. Ishikita invented and won the Grand Prix at an international competition, “a ventilator that can be manufactured with a 3D printer”.
In addition to exhibiting a number of products, including those from the 1980s, the results of research by groups and individuals engaged in innovative activities in various fields were presented.

We held an online training session on gesture interfaces from the Welfare Equipment Department of the Tokyo Metropolitan Association!
Saturday, March 21, 2022, 13:00-16:00
