Technology and the Human Body: JST ACCEL”Embodied Media Project” 2nd Symposium
 JST ACCEL Project on Embodied Media, construction and deployment of embodied media technology based on haptic primary colors, has been launched and led by Susumu Tachi, Professor Emeritus at the University of Tokyo. This project aims to develop an integrated haptic sensor and a display system based on the principle of haptic primary colors. We also aim to construct virtual reality and telexistence platforms that can deliver embodied experiences with haptic sensations. In this symposium, we will discuss how the human ability will be augmented and enhanced by the advancement of technology and art, and foresee the future society that virtual realty and telexistence will develop and create.

Experience the first Japanese content-based approach to overcoming language and hearing barriers!
 Reasons such as ‘I don’t know what is being said’ and ‘I can’t hear it’ have been given for not being able to understand content at airports, shopping centers, theme parks and on public transportation. Overcoming the difficulties of automated translation and functioning without the need for an internet connection, the universal sound design system ‘Omotenashi Guide’ is getting a lot of attention. Overseas travel can become much more enjoyable by overcoming the language barrier!
