Kiyoshi Kiyokawa is Professor at the Nara Institute of Science and Technology (NAIST) where he leads the Cybernetics and Reality Engineering (CARE) Laboratory. His pioneering work began oin immersive modeling, object manipulation and interactive techniques. r. Kiyokawa’s interests began to gradually shift from AR/VR to human augmentation and assistive interfaces after he compiled the VR Technology Roadmap for the Virtual Reality Society of Japan in 2013, which envisions a future in which XR technology can increase people’s options for living and realize an inclusive society. Since then, he has frequently worked on vision augmentation and correction projects. He has also developed various multimodal interfaces, including one of the first systems to use drone-based midair haptics in 2013 and a GAN-based food-to-food translation system for taste modulation in 2018.
