Sixth-year student at the Secondary School attached to the Faculty of Education, the University of Tokyo

I study body ownership, sense of agency, and perception.
My work focuses especially on the Rubber Hand Illusion and
bodily perception in virtual reality environments.

Research About Me

Research Overview

My current research examines how shifts in body ownership induced by the Rubber Hand Illusion affect movements guided by perceived body position.

I also study perception and cognition through phenomena such as the Phantom Touch Illusion and body ownership in VR, including how such shifts influence human behavior and movement.
