summary	The purpose of this study is the development of a tool by which citizens who are non-specialists can design a regional revitalisation project. Therefore, a 3D CAD / VR (3-dimensional computer-aided design / virtual reality) combination system was developed by using SketchUP Pro, GIMP, and UC-win / Road. This system has the advantages of low cost and easy operation. The utility of the system was verified as a result of applying the developed prototype system in the Super Science High School program for high school students created by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, Japan. It has been used for two years, since 2007. In addition, the characteristics of the VR made by the non-specialists were considered.

title	Use of a WiFi Location Estimation Service as a Tool for Presenting Real Time Information During a River Cruise
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2010.557
source	FUTURE CITIES [28th eCAADe Conference Proceedings / ISBN 978-0-9541183-9-6] ETH Zurich (Switzerland) 15-18 September 2010, pp.557-564
summary	This paper highlights the use of ubiquitous technology to effectively enable location estimation in a system that promotes the display of surrounding information during a sightseeing cruise. The proposed system stands on the applicability of WiFi signal strength to grasp current location and on the use of web-tagged place information on the contents of riverfront places and its revival processes. The effectiveness of system in both technical and social aspects was verified promoting a river cruise in downtown Osaka in cooperation with volunteer citizens, experts and a cruise company. The accuracy provided by the WiFi location estimation presented some failures at certain points but was satisfactory enough to guarantee the display of nearby information at certain level. The proposed web navigation was testified positive by respondents, although additional adjustments of its design and improvements of the WiFi server were pointed out as necessary steps.

title	Development of a City Presentation Method by Linking Viewpoints of a Physical Scale Model and VR
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2010.747
source	FUTURE CITIES [28th eCAADe Conference Proceedings / ISBN 978-0-9541183-9-6] ETH Zurich (Switzerland) 15-18 September 2010, pp.747-754
summary	The design of a city has a great influence on its society. Therefore, current/future cities must be understandable by everyone, regardless of their ability to use technology. Various tools have been used to show urban spaces. The authors focused on SCMODs (physical scale models), and VR (Virtual Reality). These are three-dimensional and intuitive expression methods. In this study, a city presentation method offering a united operating environment linking viewpoint information between a SCMOD and VR is developed and evaluated. Photogrammetry acquires aspect information with a laser pointer, an AR marker and a web camera. To evaluate this method, 36 testees answered a questionnaire after experiencing the method. The testees evaluated the method positively.

title	Development and Social Experiment for a Tourism Information Collection System by Tourists
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2010.565
source	FUTURE CITIES [28th eCAADe Conference Proceedings / ISBN 978-0-9541183-9-6] ETH Zurich (Switzerland) 15-18 September 2010, pp.565-573
summary	It can be said that improving tourism facilities will be indispensable for the economy of our country in the future. To improve tourism facilities, tourism information evaluated by tourists should be collected and transformed into useful knowledge, and then this knowledge should be used for the planning and the improvement of tour routes and the infrastructure of sightseeing areas. Therefore, this research describes a tourism information collection system. The collection system was used to identify tourists’ needs accurately, effectively and widely by using a CPCG (Cell-Phone with Camera and GPS) and by developing a SIMS (Sightseeing Information Management Server). To verify the proposed methods, the author carried out a social experiment. The experiment showed that the proposed methods were effective.
