Project

Maintenance and improvement of consumer benefits In 2015, we initiated research concerning a "fatigue-relieving office" environment. We are examining the relationship between temperature, humidity, and intellectual productivity. This research examines the extent of the impact on specific types of environment and aims to improve both intellectual productivity and appropriate energy use considering psychological factors that do not come under the thermal comfort index.
