Lab for Innovative Infrastructure Systems

I’m Kaori, a second-year master’s student.
I participated the first International Symposium on Intelligent Technology for Future Transportation in Helsinki on the 20th October.
I presented a research titled “Virtual Reality Experimental Study on Bicycle Environment Assessment Using One-Boundary Drift-Diffusion Model”.

This research was a collaborative project with Professor Yusak and Ph.D. student Mr. Shun at BOKU in Vienna, building on the VR experiment I conducted during my stay there last year. It was especially meaningful to present this work, as it marks my first collaborative research. I am also grateful to Dr. Aivars Rubenis for his insightful questions.

This symposium was my first experience presenting at an international conference. I gained so much, not only from the questions raised about my research but also from the diversity of research shared and the casual conversations with other attendees.

With this experience, I am even more motivated to improve our research. Thank you for this valuable opportunity.
