CEATEC JAPAN 2011 Exhibition Overview

An overview has been compiled of the CEATEC JAPAN 2011 exhibition that will be held at Makuhari Messe from October 4 (Tuesday) to October 8 (Saturday) from 10:00 to 17:00 every day.
At this year's CEATEC JAPAN, while overcoming difficulties such as the earthquake and electricity issues, Japan's IT and electronic industries will make an appeal to the world about Japan's potential as it aims for reconstruction. Together with this, we believe CEATEC JAPAN will be a great opportunity to demonstrate the vitality of the IT and electronics industries that are making great progress beyond the current difficult situation.
CEATEC Japan is Asia's largest comprehensive exhibition in fields such as images, information and communications. This exhibition will see the lead that the IT and electronics industries have in realizing a plentiful and low-carbon society conveyed widely, both at home and abroad.
This year, in addition to the exhibition's theme of "Smart Innovation - Cutting edge technologies to create the future," we are running "Safe, Secure and Smart Society Proposed by the IT and Electronics Industries" as our promotion slogan. The plan is to hold a lively exhibition and conference and during the period of the event we expect 200,000 visitors.

Smart Community Innovation 2011

Smart Community has been attracting attention as a social system that balances environmental concerns and a comfortable lifestyle through the use of renewable energy and the effective utilization of electricity throughout an entire region.
At CEATEC JAPAN 2011, there will be an introduction to the various activities of the IT and electronics industries toward the realization of a low carbon society. In addition to this, there will be demonstrations and displays of the health and medical equipment services that utilize IT and a smart house of the near future that includes electric vehicles (EV).
Television has completely switched to digital broadcasting and now mass media and social media are attempting to unite. At the NHK/JEITA booth, as diverse services that are being created by this collaboration between broadcasting and the Internet, there will be a showcase and the opportunity to personally experience content that is currently available, Hybridcast, which is a next generation broadcasting transmission cooperation service, and the social television service, teleda, which connects people and programs.
