“…Therefore I argue here that a primary fundament of kansei design is the perception theory on which the notion of kansei is approached. An indirect kansei design approach implies that kansei is defined as a high function of the brain related to emotions, sensitivity, feelings, experience and intuition, including interactions between them [27]. Beauty is evaluated from the way the design is experienced in the user's mind.…”

“…A more literal translation is "the faculty of felling" [1] as in a person's ability to feel and to be aware of such feelings. Nagamachi has defined Kansei as the "individual's subjective impression from a certain artefact, environment, or situation using all the senses of sight, hearing, feeling, smell, taste as well as recognition" [3]. There is an analogy to Gestalt psychology: Kansei is the affection arisen from becoming aware of the gestalt in an experience.…”

“…There is an analogy to Gestalt psychology: Kansei is the affection arisen from becoming aware of the gestalt in an experience. However, Kansei itself cannot be observed, only its causes and consequences of the experience [3]. Kansei can only be indirectly and partially assessed through measuring how our senses react (psychophysiological responses) and what meaning (behavioral responses) are given to it [3].…”

For over 40 years, Kansei-based research and development have been conducted in Japan and other East Asian countries and these decades of research have influenced Kansei interpretation. New methods and applications, including virtual reality and artificial intelligence, have emerged since the millennium, as the Kansei concept has spread throughout Europe and the rest of the world. This paper reviews past literature and industrial experience, offering a comprehensive understanding of Kansei, the underlying philosophy, and the methodology of Kansei Engineering from the approach of psychology and physiology, both qualitatively and quantitatively. The breadth of Kansei is described by examples, emerging from both industry and academia. Additionally, thematic mapping of the state-of-the-art as well as an outlook are derived from feedback obtained from structured interview of thirty-five of the most distinguished researchers in Kansei. The mapping provides insights into current trends and future directions. Kansei is unique because it includes the consideration of emotion in the design of products and services. The paper aims at becoming a reference for researchers, practitioners, and stakeholders across borders and cultures, looking for holistic perspectives on Kansei, Kansei Engineering, and implementation methods. The novelty of the paper resides in the unification of authors amongst pioneers from different parts of the world, spanning across diversified academic backgrounds, knowledge areas and industries.
