On December 14, 2025<\/strong>, we\u00a0participated in \u201cThe 15th Minna no Kagaku Hiroba (Science Plaza for Everyone<\/em>) in Karatsu,\u201d<\/strong> held at the Karatsu City Cultural and Gymnasium.<\/p>\n

This one-day science outreach event brought together approximately 20 hands-on booths from junior high schools, high schools, universities, and companies, offering visitors of all ages an opportunity to experience the fun and excitement of science and technology.<\/p>\n

IPS presented a booth titled \u201cLet\u2019s Think About Smart Contact Lenses,\u201d<\/strong> led by Takeo Miyake<\/span><\/span><\/strong>, Professor at IPS.<\/p>\n

Smart contact lenses are expected to play a key role in future technologies such as augmented reality (AR)<\/strong> for visual enhancement and health monitoring<\/strong> related to eye diseases and vision loss.
In this exhibition, visitors were introduced to the basic principles of wireless power transfer and wireless communication<\/strong>, which are essential for future lens-type devices.<\/p>\n

As a hands-on demonstration, a small receiver device with an LED was installed in the eye of a face-shaped plastic model.
When a wireless power transmitter was brought close to the model, the LED lit up without any physical connection, allowing visitors to visually experience how wireless power transfer works.<\/p>\n

In addition, various prototype devices developed in the laboratory were displayed, creating opportunities for direct interaction and discussion with visitors about future research and technological development.<\/p>\n

IPS will continue to engage in outreach activities like this to share the appeal of cutting-edge science and engineering with society.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
