We want to enable people to connect more deeply with those who share the same interests and form stronger bonds within their communities." He touched on Sony's work with artists such as Adele on her new album "30," and introduced its latest technologies and initiatives to support creators, including "Virtual Production" that removes restrictions on video production, Sony's professional drone "Airpeak" that supports creativity, and its latest smartphone "Xperia PRO-I."

Next to take the stage was Tom Rothman, Chairman and CEO, Sony Pictures Entertainment Motion Picture Group, to talk about PlayStation Productions, a collaboration between Sony Pictures Entertainment and Sony Interactive Entertainment to produce movies and TV based on PlayStation IP.

Next, Jim Ryan, President and CEO, Sony Interactive Entertainment, announced the next-generation virtual reality system "PlayStation VR2" and the new "PlayStation VR2 Sense controllers" that will realize an unprecedented experience and immersive feeling in the world of games. Furthermore, he announced the latest in the "Horizon" series, "Horizon Call of the Mountain," which was a huge hit all over the world, as a title exclusively for "PlayStation VR2."

Yoshida then took to the stage again, to highlight the tracking technology of Sony Group company Hawk-Eye Innovations, and Sony's partnership with Manchester City Football Club for the realization of next-generation fan communities in the virtual space.

Yoshida concluded his presentation by speaking on the latest progress and future direction of VISION-S, an initiative that aims to contribute to the evolution of mobility.

  • "Virtual Production": Filmmaking Technology that Stimulates the Creativity of Creators
    Virtual production frees creators from various restrictions in shooting, such as location, weather, and time, by implementing a production environment that integrates the background image with the subject in real time. The combination of Crystal LED, which projects high-definition background images with high contrast and rich color reproduction, and the cinema camera "VENICE," which achieves high resolution and delicate depictions, stimulates creators' creativity and increases the freedom of expression.

  • "Future of Sport Entertainment": Hawk-Eye's Tracking Systems and Virtual Fan Engagement
    Hawk-Eye Innovations, a Sony Group company, has been advancing innovation in the world of sports through its sports officiating and broadcast enhancement technology.

These systems make it possible to instantly and accurately track the movements of athletes and objects from the live game video captures, collect the skeletal data and virtually recreate the live action.
    Sony is also conducting a PoC (proof of concept) with Manchester City Football Club to create a next-generation global online fan community that integrates the physical and virtual worlds. The PoC will leverage Sony's image analysis technology and sensing technology, as well as Hawk-Eye's tracking systems, to explore the creation of new forms of entertainment to engage sports fans all over the world.

•  Aiming to Create Space Inspiration Experiences: STARSPHERE
Together with the University of Tokyo and JAXA, Sony is promoting "STARSPHERE," a project aimed at creating inspiring space experiences. Sony will exhibit for the first time a mock-up of a nano-satellite equipped with Sony's camera equipment, scheduled for launch in the 2022 fiscal year. Using a shooting simulator, users can control the satellite to capture the earth and stars exactly as they intended.
