スライド概要
SIGGRAPH2016でのIVRC BoF です。舘先生時代のPowerPointで作った最後の世代のBoF開催スライドと思います。
岩田洋夫先生や安藤英由樹先生の講演、Laval Virtual ReVolution、白井がキュレーションしていた時代の円熟期「TransHumanism++」のご紹介などもあったりして、当時の様子を表現する必要な情報がまとまっているようにも思います。
動画を含めたファイルサイズはめっちゃでかくて1.2GBほどありますが、 IVRC.net にて保管してありますので需要あればお声がけください。

What is IVRC? International collegiate Virtual Reality Contest establish in 1993 by Prof. Susumu Tachi Contest of interaction and virtual reality, which fuses art and technology Honors the greatest Virtual Reality and Interactive works of students New education system through contest
What is IVRC? Organized by Virtual Reality Society of Japan Supported by Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry and Ministry of Education, Culture, Science and Technology Ambassade de France au japon, Service pour la Science et la Technologie Held at Miraikan, National science museum of Emerging Science and Innovation Virtual Reality Society of Japan http://www.vrsj.org/
IVRC: contest of the students, by the students, for the students ⚫ IVRC is the acronym of “International collegiate Virtual Reality Contest”, which has been held since 1993 and is the contest of Interactive products using advanced technologies such as virtual reality and robots. Our English name changed for internationalization in 2004, because we began to invite awarded teams from the French VR contest “Laval Virtual”. ⚫ When you hear the words such as “Virtual Reality” and “robot”, you should feel that special expensive machines are necessary to realize them. However, there are many ideas which can be actualized only with handmade machines. The main purpose of this contest is for participants to gain deeper understanding of and familiarity with interactive technologies through activities such as planning interactive systems, making devices themselves, and improving quality of their contents. ⚫ IVRC has not only the function of contest but also the function of education. It aims to construct the new education system of the 21st century to develop excellent human resources, who can think, learn, and work by themselves. planning technology design Team management

Virtual Reality in the 1990s 1989 VPL Research Data Glove and Eyephone. “Virtual reality" was first used. 1990 Santa Barbara Conference (The Engineering Foundation) Virtually all the researchers were summoned. 1991 ICAT (International Conference on Artificial Reality and Telexistence) was held in Japan. 1992 Committee on Virtual Reality was established in National Research Council. Its report was published in 1995. 1993 IVR(Industrial Virtual Realty) was held in Japan. 1993 VRAIS (Virtual Reality Annual International Symposium) and Research Frontiers in Virtual Reality were held. They gathered together to form IEEE Virtual Reality Conference. 1993 IVRC(International Virtual Realty Contest) was held. 1996 VRSJ (Virtual Reality Society of Japan) was established. 2001 IEEE Virtual Reality Conference was held in Japan. 2008 National Academy of Engineering (NSF) announced 14 grand engineering challenges for the 21st century on February 15, 2008. Enhance Virtual Reality is chosen as one of the 14 challenges.
23 years… More than 200 projects have been realized through 23 IVRCs including 21 projects selected as SIGGRAPH ETech. Average 5 persons for each project mean over 1,000 persons have deeply experienced and understood VR! IVRC students become staffs, and staffs now become world famous professors, designers, creators, and engineers.

21 CENTURY'S GRAND ENGINEERING CHALLENGES National Academy of Engineering announced 14 grand engineering challenges for the 21st century on February 15, 2008. http://www.engineeringchallenges.org/ The final choices fall into four themes that are essential for humanity to flourish -- sustainability, health, reducing vulnerability, and joy of living. Tremendous advances in quality of life have come from improved technology in areas such as farming and manufacturing. If we focus our effort on the important grand challenges of our age, we can hugely improve the future. Enhance Virtual Reality is chosen one of the 14 challenges.

Why I strike back to SIGGRAPH? • I want to show Big Robot at E-tech. • “BigRobot Mk.1A” presenting sense of walking of 5m tall giant • It’s a new frontier in Device Art.
Why I made Big Robot? • I constructed a hanger named “Empowerment Studio”. • Development of large-scale robots definitely needs a large hanger.
Big Robot Project is a part of “PhD. Program in Empowerment Informatics” • Five year Ph.D. Program funded by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology • Duration: 2013 ~ 2019 • Total budget : 2 billion JPY

My IVRC 18 years ago… Virtual Experience system ーーーー Attention of some Japanese problem “Crowded train experience system” “Planting rice experience system” 44
Using Exhibition experience (IVRC etc.. ) for PBL teaching ↑ My practical lecture (2010-) syllabus 45
IVRC for PBL teaching <- My practical lecture Creativity = Execution of work using own hands extibition in the contest. “Systematic study” vs. “Problem Based Learning” learning case by case a lot by yourself Even if the memory has been forgotten, Hands remember its. Usual Lecture Unconsciousness thinking Connection of fragment experience Power for create of the “new something” 46

Why IVRC is good for Lab? • IVRC project is FULLY student-only Even I do not know what they submitted, before they are accepted. • It CANNOT be part of lab projects Because I cannot understand what they are thinking. • But it is occasionally beyond my imagination, which connects the lab to a new research area, which lab managers do not dare to step into. In my lab’s case, IVRC projects opened door to “the whole-body haptics” researches, some of which can be experienced at e-tech from today.

ReVolution 2017: TransHumanism++
Laval Virtual ReVolution 2017 calls for innovative virtual reality demo projects that fall under
the theme, "TransHumanism++".
Transhumanists support the emergence and convergence of technologies including
nanotechnology, biotechnology, information technology, and cognitive science. They also
welcome hypothetical future technologies such as simulated reality, artificial intelligence,
superintelligence, 3D bioprinting, mind uploading, chemical brain preservation and
cryonics. They believe that humans can and should use these technologies to surpass the
limitations of humankind.
Laval Virtual ReVolution 2017 seeks to act as a milestone for the realization of
"Transhumanism + future of {Virtual Reality + Arts + Culture}". We welcome the submission of
scientific experiences and academic demos that showcase a brighter future for humankind
with the aid of Transhumanism projects. Some examples of Transhumanism projects include
super human sports which can be enjoyed in everywhere by anyone at every time with
augmented human technologies. Demonstrations will be judged based on for their durability,
innovation, and value of entertainment or human-being.
Program is supported by Super Human Sports Society http://superhuman-sports.org/
