Name:  Saitama Institute of Technology     
Booth:  1920  
Web:  http://www.luna.sit.ac.jp/   
Company Description:  Saitama Institute of Technology has paid intensive 
efforts on the application of multimedia technology to education. 
The three-dimensional computer graphics (CG) and three-dimensional 
scientific visualization have been mainly studied in these fields 
by using the visualization tools such as AVS and the immersive 
virtual reality environment (IVE) such as CAVE. 
In the education for the students AVS visualization software and 
three-dimensional CG tools have been used in the exercises and 
project studies. Cooperative exercises and projects have been 
carried out in the projects for the education of the senior 
and junior high schools also. Application using KINECT 
environment in the fields of education and entertainment 
will be shown by using the actual Facilities. 
Novel motion capture/visualization system using wearable 
motion sensors and Kinect will be demonstrated by Institute 
of Systems, Information Technologies and Nanotechnologies 
(ISIT) in the booth.
