Self-introduction
During and after I was an undergraduate, I’ve always had a fixated interest in how I can add new dimensions to both the media and their content. The hidden-line removal algorithm, which Dr. Yoshio Ohno, a professor emeritus of our university, originally studied and developed, served as a trigger for me to visualize several complex functions and their Riemann surfaces. Since they were generated directly by mathematical formulas or computer algorithms, the achievement was probably a world first. The editorial board for Journal “Mathematical Seminar” decided to publish our liberally illustrated article together with a cover story (you can download it here).
Then, in the research and development department of Namco Ltd. (now Bandai Namco Entertainment), we produced a commercially viable version of a multi-view autostereoscopic display system that uses a lenticular array and a super-high-resolution color LCD panel, for the first time in the world. We verified the effectiveness of our 3D display in terms of both the hardware and the software, taking account of the final 3D image content design.
Now we’re proposing an immersive virtual learning environment that allows the user to set environmental limits beyond the Euclidean 3-space while providing good user experience. We hope that it will spread widely to society as a learning environment for adults as well as students in the future.
