4D2U theater at NAOJ
4D Digital Universe Project
Today & Future
H 。idehiko AgataDirector of Public Information Office
National Astronomical Observatory of Japan (NAOJ ）
About the 4D2U ProjectThe project's goal is to visualize astronomical data in a way
that helps watchers feel as if they are witnessing the unfolding of the universe.
"Four dimensions" refer to the three dimensions of space and the one dimension of time embedded in their data.
"Digital" refers to computer graphics visualizations of digital data.
The resulting acronym is "4D2U", and it is also astronomy's way of saying "4D to you."
For astronomers, the goal is to provide a rare 3D view of data to help with research.
Unrestricted explorations in 3D are essential tools for understanding modern observational data and computer simulations.
Background of Project
• Massive amounts of digital image data gained by world class observation instruments such as Subaru Telescope 、 ALMA Project and ‘Hinode’ etc.
• Large astronomical simulation data
• Wide adoption of broadband
• Higher Accountability required for research

Future research and development:4D Digital Universe Theater Net
Concept Image of Remote Display System
・ Delivering live lectures from NAOJ to distant locations in 3D.(Using the network to deliver the image and voice of the guide)
Expanding content types:Making real images into 3D vision
Equipment for recording 3D HD vision contents
・ For example: Introducing observatories, instruments etc.)
Expanding content types：Combining different data
・ Reconstructing the latest scientific knowledgewithin the contrast (space scale) of over 40 digits
・ Using real science and simulation・ Enjoyment, depth, and purpose of science
13.7billion light years Core of moon 30km Nucleon 1fm
Utilization in other fields
•Biology•Molecule science•Science dealing with other complex system. (Nuclear Fusion etc.)
•Cultural treasures
