work.

NUI and culture
●
Factors in NUI are
strongly related to
the culture where
NUI is used
– It also depends on
the cultural

Conclusions
● We need to understand “Culture and
Kansei,” so that our activities in SF-SIG are
improved.
● Especially, understanding the Culture and
Kansei in foreign area should be required,
if we would like to promote our results to
the world.
