I design and make prototypes for various products and services. I often participate in projects with the role of quickly making design ideas into visible forms and creating bridges between designers and engineers. In the development of this humidifying air purifier, I created and investigated prototypes that tested various light units at the top and bottom of the device. These lights are used to enable visual feedback about room air quality and the status of the device itself. What I sought was to provide users with mental comfort through expressions of light that make the device itself seem to be breathing. Since the skills necessary in the workplace change moment by moment, gathering information and researching technologies are indispensable. Last year, I went to university as part of my work and gained knowledge and skills in the AI field. With the things that I want to do matching what the company wants from me, I spend each day as a design engineer joyfully and at ease.
I am the father of one child. When my son was born, I temporarily took a break from my hobbies, which include social dancing, swimming and tennis, and began trying things with him that catch his interest. My son likes vehicles, and he loves trains in particular. I had absolutely no interest in trains, but my interest has gradually grown as I spend time with him, and now we enjoy them with everyone in the family.
