[Paper] A Real-Object-Oriented Exhibition System of Ukiyo-e of Anisotropic Reflection Properties

The ukiyo-e is considered as the art of light and shadow. Various techniques, such as “kara-zuri” (printing without paint) and “kira-zuri” (printing with mica powder), were used to print this amazing artwork. The ukiyo-e has a complex anisotropic reflective property, which makes its appearance differs depending on the viewing angle. Therefore, viewers can appreciate the ukiyo-e once they hold it in their hands and view it from different angles. However, the way ukiyo-e displayed in art galleries and museums makes it difficult for viewers to actually hold and view it from different angles. In this research, we propose a real-object-oriented interface that enables the viewers to appreciate the anisotropic reflective property of ukiyo-e by projecting digitally archived ukiyo-e on real Japanese paper. We evaluated the proposed method by comparing it with the exhibition system that uses a tablet device with an accelerometer.
