  • Connecting virtual and real space
  • Transmitting invisible information with visible light
  • Let's build an actual machine and demonstrate!

Professor / YENDO Tomohiro , Assistant Professor / FUJII Kengo
Prof. Yendo and Prof. Fujii are very friendly to students. They always give us advices for research and other matters. On the other hand, in situation other than research, they are close to students and often make small talks.

Research Content

We research on two main areas below.
・Three-dimensional(3D) display
We study 3D head-up display and glasses-less 3D display multiple people can see. In addition, transparent 3D displays that display 3D images on real objects are proposed.
・Visible light communication(VLC)
It is wireless communication technology by using visible light. Communication systems are proposed to transmit information from traffic lights to on-board cameras and electronic message boards to smartphones.

This is a first world spherical 3D display. You can build an actual prototype and demonstrate it.

A Day in the Lab

Our laboratory doesn’t adopt a core time system, so you can do research at any time you want. Our seminar is divided into two groups, 3D display and VLC. In addition, there is a seminar where papers are read, introduced, and discussed. When we get stuck in researches, we often have discussions with students and professors. In addition, our relationships in this laboratory are very good, such as going out for dinner after the seminar and having a drinking party regularly.

This is a state of our laboratory. They are discussing on a research theme.

Thesis Subjects

  • (M)Distortion Reduction with Directional Display in Mirror Array Type Transparent Virtual Image Display
  • (M)Method to estimate demodulation parameters using payloads in optical camera communications.
  • (D)Study on Advanced Undersampling-based Visible Light Communication
