Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this research, we present a basic study on color-forming display for large scale space. The
color-forming display is an display method using reflection of ambient light, and controls the color of the real object. In the previous study, it utilized by energy projection method such as laser and UV projector. Since it releases strong energy, it is difficult to apply large space. In this research, we propose a method that eliminates the risk of energy emission by controlling energy distribution by robot. In this paper, we describe the prototype and confirm the appearance of drawing sample.
Aiming at realizing large-scale color-forming display in the bright environment of the room, we projected ultraviolet rays by 365nm LED which is controlled according to the movement of the vacuum cleaner type robot. As a result, the color change sufficiently, and it is visible by reflecting ambient light.
