(Head office: Shibuya Ward, Tokyo; President: Shuji Abe), has been nominated for Best Animated Short Film at the 81 st Academy Awards®. This accomplishment marks the second time a work directed by a Japanese director has been nominated for the same award, following the nomination of Koji Yamamoto’s “Atamayama” in 2003. The director, Kunio Kato, was born in 1977 and is currently serving Animation Studio “Cage” of ROBOT’s Character Animation Division, Kato directed the nominated work to a screenplay created by Kenya Hirata, a playwright also serving ROBOT. The animated film has garnered acclaim at film festivals worldwide. Last June, at the Annecy International Animated Film Festival 2008, it won the Annecy Cristal––the top prize––as well as the Junior Jury Award. Elsewhere, the film was awarded the Hiroshima and Audience Prizes at the 12 th International Animation Festival Hiroshima 2008, and the Animation Division Grand Prize at the 12 th Japan Media Arts Festival sponsored by Japan’s Agency of Cultural Affairs, among others. In all, the masterpiece has so far won 19 awards at 12 film festivals both domestic and abroad. Many are curious whether Kato will be the second Japanese director ever to win an Oscar®, following Hayao Miyazaki, who won the Best Animated Feature Film Award in 2003 for his “Sen to Chihiro no Kamikakushi” (Spirited Away). ２ La maison en petits cubes え < STORY SYNOPSIS > It was a house, just like a one built of toy blocks. Since the sea level was rising higher and higher, the house too was built higher and higher. This is a story of a grand pa living in the house and his memories of life with his family. < DIRECTOR’S STATEMENT> This work depicts, in a rather straightforward manner, the central character, a lonesome old man, in his everyday life. My intention in this is to present a symbolic representation of life. True, life is ephemeral. Yet, it still matters what you consider as truly important and what you do with things gone and lost, in this brief period of time called life. I wanted this work to help viewers reflect on these things. ＜CREDITS & TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS＞ Nationality of film: JAPAN Year of film: 2008 Production Company: ROBOT Communications Inc.

  • 22 VII. the New Golden Age Then Something Wonderful Happened. Just When Everything Was Looking As Grim As It Could for the Art O
    VII. The New Golden Age Then something wonderful happened. Just when everything was looking as grim as it could for the art of animation, technology came to the rescue. Here was an art form born only because technology made it possible, almost died when the human costs in time and effort became too high, and now was rescued by technology again. The computer age saved animation. Since computers first came on the scene in the 50s, there have been people who have tried to create machinery and programs to make animation faster, easier and cheaper to both make and distribute. From machines like copiers and scanners, to computers that can draw and render, to the distribution of animation by cable, Internet, phones, tablets and video games - as one character says, “To infinity and beyond” - animation has been totally reborn. As the old animators of the Golden Age were dying off, the new technologies created a huge demand for the old craft. Fortunately, many of the old men were able to pass on their skills to a younger generation, which has helped the quality of today's animation meet and exceed the animation of the Golden Age. In 1985, Girard and Maciejewski at OSU publish a paper describing the use of inverse kinematics and dynamics for animation.! The first live-action film to feature a complete computer-animated character is released, "YOUNG SHERLOCK HOLMES."! Ken Perlin at NYU publishes a paper on noise functions for textures. He later applied this technique to add realism to character animations. In 1986, "A GREEK TRAGEDY" wins the Academy Award.

    1 An all-new Berserker . novel! D-315-flt35t-fl I 5 CAN) A master of science fiction, fantasy, and horror, Saberhagen is one of the most prolific and inventive novelists of our time. Now, in Shiva in Steel, he returns to the riveting saga of the Berserkers, a race of intelligent machines devoted to exterminating all organic life. In a sector of the galaxy occupied by Earth-descended people, one Berserker computer has suddenly and mysteriously developed a tactical strategy unlike anything the human opposition has seen before. Shiva, like the Hindu god of destruction after which it was named, annihilates entire colonies with the help of its fiendish subordi­ nates. Commander Claire Normandy strug­ gles to prepare for Shiva's attacks, while Pilot Harry Silver realizes that he must deal with his own demons in order to help her. When the Berserkers approach, a decision is made to destroy the destroyer, whatever the cost. Neither side, howev ared for the incredible risks that c the artack becomes imminent.

  • Corke Thesis
    High-Performance Visual Closed-Loop Robot Control By Peter Ian Corke A thesis submitted in total fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy July 1994 Department of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering University of Melbourne Abstract This thesis addresses the use of monocular eye-in-hand machine vision to control the position of a robot manipulator for dynamically challenging tasks. Such tasks are defined as those where the robot motion required approaches or exceeds the performance limits stated by the manufacturer. Computer vision systems have been used for robot control for over two decades now, but have rarely been used for high-performance visual closed-loop control. This has largely been due to technological limitations in image processing, but since the mid 1980s advances have made it feasible to apply computer vision techniques at a sufficiently high rate to guide a robot or close a feedback control loop. Visual servoing is the use of com- puter vision for closed-loop control of a robot manipulator, and has the potential to solve a number of problems that currently limit the potential of robots in industry and advanced applications. This thesis introduces a distinction between visual kinematic and visual dynamic con- trol. The former is well addressed in the literature and is concerned with how the ma- nipulator should move in response to perceived visual features. The latter is concerned with dynamic effects due to the manipulator and machine vision sensor which limit per- formance and must be explicitly addressed in order to achieve high-performance control. This is the principle focus of the thesis.

  • 2012 年 3月 Bunka-Cho
    文化庁では、魅力ある総合芸術であり、かつ海外への日本文化発信の有効な媒体である日本映画の振興に、様々な観点 から取り組んでいます。その一環として、映画をあらゆる角度から取り上げる「文化庁映画週間」を東京国際映画祭期間 中に開催し、あらゆる立場の人々が映画を通じて集う場を提供しています。 今回、8 回目となる「文化庁映画週間」は、優れた文化記録映画作品および永年にわたり日本映画を支えてこられた方々 を顕彰する「文化庁映画賞贈呈式」や受賞作品による「受賞記念上映会」をはじめ、様々な映画人による「シンポジウム ― MOVIE CAMPUS ―」、映画関係者以外の著名人をナビゲーターに迎えた「映画ナビゲーターズ」を実施しました。 2012 年 3 月 Bunka-Cho (Agency for Cultural Affairs) supports promotion of Japanese films from various viewpoints, including supporting film production, facilitating distribution and exhibition, as well as human resource development. As part of such efforts, Bunka-Cho holds the “Bunka-Cho Film Week” during the period of the Tokyo International Film Festival. It considers “films” from multiple angles and provides opportunities for many people involved with “films” to participate in the Film Festival. This year, at the eighth occasion of the Bunka-Cho Film Week, the following events were held: an awards presentation ceremony to commend excellent documentaries and individuals who have supported Japanese films for many years, a commemorative screenings for prizewinners, and a symposium (“MOVIE CAMPUS”) with various people from the film industry.

Per evitare che diventi un vero e proprio perdente, arriva in suo soccorso Doraemon, una sorta di “fratello maggiore” con il compito di aiutarlo a difendersi dai bulli Gian e Suneo e a diventare un ragazzino assennato e un adulto responsabile. Per riuscire nell’intento, Doraemon utilizza una serie di incredibili e magici gadget, i chiusky, che in questa occasione condurranno il gatto azzurro e il piccolo Nobita nel futuro per provare a modificare una sorte che gli si preannuncia non proprio felice, soprattutto sul lato sentimentale… Riuscirà Nobita a conquistare finalmente Shizuka, la dolce amica che ama da sempre e a non farsi più influenzare da Gian e Suneo? Il loro sarà un viaggio nel tempo avvincente e ricco di sorprese che non deluderà i fan vecchi e quelli nuovi.
