Susumu HARA’s research while affiliated with Nagoya University and other places

In recent years, flying cars have been actively researched both in Japan and abroad. However, little research has been carried out on the social acceptance of flying vehicles. Social problems often arise when neglecting the social acceptance. It is expected that problems will arise in the future when “Aerial Industrial Revolution” occurs due to industrial use of drones and commercialization of flying cars. In this study, the social acceptance is evaluated by two approaches. One is real-time evaluation by Kansei-analyzer and the other is social psychological evaluation by questionnaire. But the applicability of Kansei-analyzer to the evaluation has not been fully addressed yet. Then this study conducts two kinds of experiments to clarify the applicability of Kansei-analyzer. This paper describes the results and consideration about the experiments to evaluate stress on noise.
