During his stay at the HICUP Lab, he explored the use of immersive environments to evaluate the sensation of movement that passengers experience in autonomous vehicles. As part of his collaboration, Yuki worked closely with HICUP Lab members and conducted a successful user study. The results of this study are expected to be published in the near future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"771\" src=\"https:\/\/hicup.famnit.upr.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/photo_2025-07-21_14-29-59-1024x771.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2232\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hicup.famnit.upr.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/photo_2025-07-21_14-29-59-1024x771.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/hicup.famnit.upr.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/photo_2025-07-21_14-29-59-300x226.jpg 300w, https:\/\/hicup.famnit.upr.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/photo_2025-07-21_14-29-59-768x578.jpg 768w, https:\/\/hicup.famnit.upr.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/photo_2025-07-21_14-29-59.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Reflecting on his time in Koper, Yuki appreciated the opportunity to exchange ideas and methods between NAIST and the HICUP Lab.
