Trend Master Co., Ltd. (Representative Director Atsushi Nakata / hereinafter Trend Master) is a laboratory of Teikyo University of Science (Uenohara City, Yamanashi), Department of Animal Science, Department of Physiology and Psychology, and Professor Igawa Ogawa. Has confirmed that the pet-type communication robot "Nade Nade Doggy," which squeezes and strokes with a real dog's voice, has the effect of increasing human attention and concentration.
In an experiment in a laboratory at Teikyo University of Science, the brain waves of the prefrontal cortex during playing with "Nade Nade Doggy" and while reading a magazine were given to the participants after a simple calculation task. As a result of the measurement, XNUMX out of XNUMX experimental participants were more alert and more focused when playing with "Nadesade Dog", and XNUMX out of XNUMX were calculated after playing. It was confirmed that the performance of the task increased significantly. Based on the results of this experiment, it is considered that the "Nade Nade-chan" changes its singing voice and responds to the sound, so it is thought that the player is paying attention and concentration while playing. It turned out that there is a possibility that it will be useful.
People can improve their physical and mental functions by living with their pets, but in recent years, housing conditions, allergies, and care have become a burden, and the number of people who cannot keep a dog is increasing. The Company and Teikyo University of Science will continue to promote joint research on the representation of pets that enhance the quality of life of dog lovers.
