The 8th Conference on Hyperdifferent Fields】What is the Real World Interaction Expanding from Materials? Keynote Lecture by Yasuaki Kakehi, The University of Tokyo / March 9, 2019 9:20~9:50 @ Shinjuku

Riverness will sponsor the event.The 8th Main Meeting of the Association of Hyperdifferent Fields(Friday and Saturday, March 8-9, 2019), a keynote lecture by Associate Professor Yasuaki Kakehi of the University of Tokyo's Interfaculty Initiative in Information Studies will be held on "Interactive Matter & Fabrication: Real World Interaction Expanded from Materials.

In response to advances in display technology, the physical and digital worlds are being superimposed, and the barriers between them are becoming looser. Mr. Kakehi is not only superimposing optical visual information, but also focusing on the various materials that make up the physical space, enhancing their expressive power computationally, and developing means to bring about even richer modality-mediated interaction with the real world. In this presentation, Mr. Kakehi and his colleagues will introduce their research on materials for dynamically changing color, shape, and movement, their fabrication methods, and interactive expressions using these materials.

We will have a program of discussions among researchers, venture companies, and large corporations from various perspectives, not limited to the themes of this session.
Audience members are invited to attend the conference. Please visit the conference website (see below).
