Hello everyone, I would like to thank Take Enomoto and the Japan Club 2011 leadership team for bringing many great events and driving us to win the title of Most Delicious "Oishii" Country last year. Our new team hopes to defend our title in the coming year and bring more awesome events, company visits, educational speakers, and life-changing karaoke experiences. If you see one of our 2011 leaders at Pete Miller’s please buy them drinks for all they brought us in 2011 and if you see a new 2012 leader, please buy us TWO drinks because we’ll need them to make this next year possible. See you all at Japan Night on May 19th! Kanpai!!!
Sincerely, Japan Club Leadership Team 2012 |

Speaker Session with Dr. Shibata, the Inventor of PARO (the world's most therapeutic robot) Come see and hear about the design process behind PARO, the world's most therapeutic robot certified by Guinness World Records, from PARO’s inventor, Dr. Takanori Shibata (National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology) PARO has 5 kinds of sensors: tactile, light, audition, temperature, and posture sensors, with which it can perceive people and its environment. These 5 sensors allow PARO to distinguish between light and dark, if he is being stroked or beaten, and recognizing its name, greetings, and praise. Interaction with PARO provokes positive memories of pets or stuffed animals, making the user feel amused and relaxed, driving psychological and physiological therapy.
