SIGGRAPH ASIA 2018: Crossover - art, Culture, technology

It was great to be back to Japan, a country that gives so much respect to culture and technology!  After taking part in Wacom Connected Ink 2018, we moved on to the show at SIGGRAPH ASIA 2018    in the same metropolis of Tokyo.

Hidden Gem in the Exhibition

There were so many stuffs to see in SIGGRAPH ASIA 2018.  Our booth was located at a far corner  of the exhibition  hall so it was kind of hidden in the show.  In the same show, we have studios like   TeamLabs, Clip Studio Paint    &   Unity, along with various research institutes showing their latest developments. SIGGRAPH Student volunteers as well as visitors discovered us at this corner are all amazed by our Expresii app. If you couldn't make it to the show, here's a recap of what we have to offer:
Visitors who tried our app immediately noticed that our water-based paint simulation is the best in the world, beating even big players like Corel, Adobe or Autodesk.   We also demo'ed our new feature for creating ambigrams.  We hope to make it easier to design ambigrams with East Asian characters. We showed ambigram designs printed  on art paper and engraved on   seals. Our work is certainly aligned with SIGGRAPH ASIA's theme of art, culture and tech crossover. Everyone knowing kanji (Chinese characters 漢字) were amazed by our ambigrams as crossover of calligraphy and design.

It's about Meeting People

We're glad to have a chance to talk to visitors as well as  having staff from TeamLabs and Clip Studio Paint visit our booth. Nothing is more satisfying than seeing happy faces of visitors and get direct feedback from them.  In particular, students from Sri Lanka actually kept coming back bringing their teachers and friends because they think our app is so cool! \(-ㅂ-)/ ♥ ♥ ♥  Some university professors also  visited us  and gave us compliments, citing they were amazed by Nelson Chu's work since his MoXi paper published in SIGGRAPH 2005 and glad to see Nelson in person finally!  Although most guests of SIGGRAPH Asia are from Asia, we still met guests from Western studios like Pixar showing interest in our technology. Finally, we also had an interesting technical discussion with a guest from Apple.   ( ̄▽ ̄)ノ

We thank the organizer of SIGGRAPH ASIA, led by Chair Ken Anjyo, for putting together such a nice show, and also our fellow exhibitors who put so much effort and energy into the show.
