IA key to solution of medical problems in Japan as a rapidly aging society must become information and communication technology (ICT). A near future ICT environment in which many homes use optical fiber communication and individuals have cellular phones with high-speed transmission over 100 Mbps will play a very important role in health maintenance, diseases prevention, and establishment of an effective and ubiquitous medical environment. To cope with this situation, our laboratory has proposed cyber-health monitoring whose purpose is to accelerate innovations of intelligent health monitoring systems by applying synergetic effects of advanced ICT.

1. Distributed sensor systems for health maintenance and estimation algorithm of physical condition
2. Control and monitoring systems of in vivo medical devices
3. An assessment system of biological effects of digital image contents
4. Virtual reality systems for rehabilitation.
