Vision became content, Sound became content, Touch has not — until us.
Before we built the language for touch, the tactile industry did not exist.
The industry is running — and growing
institutional overview
Deployments
The industry is running.
Across Japan, tactile systems I designed are now embedded in the daily operations of corporate offices, factory floors, sports facilities, and eldercare environments.
Kaga Electronics Group — Tokyo Stock Exchange Prime-listed — serves as the principal industrial anchor. Kyokuto Electric followed, deploying tactile systems across administrative and factory environments. Volvo and Lexus showroom facilities have integrated the framework into their wellness spaces. One of Japan's major eldercare providers will be announced shortly.

In Europe, London Trusted Therapy on Harley Street is the clinical foundation — for both deployment and systematic data acquisition — from which the European tactile industry will be built.

This is what a new industry looks like.
Recognition
In 2024, I received the Health 2.0 Outstanding Leadership Award in Dubai. The work has been covered by Kyodo News, and JST Science JAPAN.
These are not the recognitions of a researcher. They are the recognitions of a field-builder.
Touch exists everywhere in nature. Wind, water, ground vibration — all of it reaches the body as tactile sensation. Until now, none of it could be captured, structured, or designed.
Tactile Score makes that possible. What was once felt but never recorded can now be designed into environments — for healthcare, wellness, and beyond.
New Book
For sight, there is photography. For hearing, there is musical notation. For touch, there was nothing.
Touch has no "language." That means it cannot be recorded or conveyed to others. Tactile notation was born to break through that barrier.
With tactile notation, the pleasant feel of a hit product, the skill of a master craftsman, the subtle texture of a marketplace — all can now be recorded and transmitted as touch.

Touch is, for the first time, becoming a medium.
