IEEE Virtual Reality 2012

  IEEE VR 2012 was held in Orange County, USA, March 6-8, 2012.

  IEEE VR 2012 is the premier international conference and exhibition on virtual reality.

  I made an poster presentation and a fast-forward oral presentation titled "Vibration Reproduction for a Virtual Yamahoko Parade System".

  A lot of researchers interested in our research on digital museum that is an application of virtual reality to humanities.

  The conference featured keynote speeches such as "Taking the 'Virtual' Out of Virtual Reality" by Prof. Carlo H Sequin, "What's Next?: The Third Wave in Computer Graphics and Interactive Techniques" by Prof. David J Kasik, and "Isn't All Reality Really Virtual?" by Prof. James J Blascovich.

The symposium "Human Body Motion Analysis with Motion Capture" ("Motion Capture Symposium" for short) is organized by the Dance Archive Project under the Global COE Program. The project and the symposium were originally started in the year 2003 under the former COE Program called 21st Century COE Program. The purposes of the Dance Archive Project include: (1) Digital archiving human body motions of intangible cultural properties especially traditional dance by using a motion capture system, (2) Numerical and quantitative analysis as well as qualitative analysis of dance body motion data, (3) Analysis and evaluation of body motion by utilizing biophysical and biomechanics information, (4) Research on representation of dance body motions and interactions with virtual dancers in virtual environments. The project consists of faculty members, researchers in our university and also visiting researchers from other universities in Japan. They are from both engineering and humanities backgrounds.
This year the symposium celebrates its 9th year. We invited Prof. Nadia Magnenar-Thalmann at Nanyang Technological University, who is one of the most famous researchers on CG and VR, to give us the invited talk on her latest research topic "Videocapturing for Medical Applications". We also invited Mr. Bo Wright at Motion Analysis Studios to give us a special talk on "The Latest Technology and Trends in Motion Capture Systems". Other researchers also introduced their latest researches in general session. A demonstration session of MEXT Digital Museum Project was organized at the same venue. The researchers exchanged their innovative ideas in an open atmosphere.

Digital Humanities 2011

During June 19-22 2011, the Digital Humanities 2011 was held in Stanford university, USA. Digital Humanities is the annual international conference of the Alliance of Digital Humanities Organisations (ADHO), which was held at  King’s College London last year and will be held at  university of Hamburg, Germany, next year.

In this conference, I has made a presentation on "A Labanotation Editing Tool for Description and Reproduction of Stylized Traditional Dance Body Motion" and was honored to receive the 2011 Bursary Award, for young researchers, from the Alliance of Digital Humanities Organizations. Therefore, I would like to thank Prof. Hachimura and the GCOE program with all of you directly and indirectly giving me comments and suggestions in my research so that my research paper was qualified.
