Third-year student Koichi Murata wins encouragement award in the Techno-Ai 2014 Techno Idea Contest

I won an encouragement award in the Techno-Ai 2014 Techno Idea Contest held November 23, 2014, for my proposal of a remote animal therapy system.

In the first screening for this contest, nine themes were chosen from 134 written research themes submitted in the university section. The second screening featured presentations on and discussion of contestants’ proposed ideas, in front of professors and others active in the fields of industry, the academy, and government. My idea, which proposes a system to support interactive communication between people and animals using remote communication technology as well as services employing this system, was regarded highly for its business potential.
