Highlights
Broadcasting Site
University of Tsukuba, Empowerment Studio
Due to the ongoing health crisis, we delivered our annual conference in a virtual setting. Talks were pre-recorded and broadcasted alongside the interactive session at the Empowerment Studio, the world class facility for virtual reality research & development, constructed in 2015. We deeply appreciate everyone who worked together with us to make this happen.
From bus stop 6 at the Tsukuba Center, take the bus bound for "Tsukuba Daigaku Chuo" or "the University Loop-line On-campus Bus" [Tsukuba Daigaku Junkan Bus] (clockwise) to "Dai-San Area Mae".
