A visitor speaks or taps a measurement request on screen, she answers, and the stage moves to the sample on its own. The blue laser lays a stripe pattern across the target while she captures 32 photos, then the object returns as colored 3D point cloud data she rotates for the crowd.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe target is a coin-sized disc with 100 engraved on it, and dents and steps show up as shape on screen.

Visitors talk to her on a monitor and the stage and blue laser beside it move on their own, scanning a coin-sized disc into 3D point cloud data. QD Laser, Taiwan's Ultimems, and Asahara Giken hold the exhibit jointly, and there are no plans for products such as games at present.","attributionJson":"[{\"source\":\"PANORA\",\"url\":\"https://panora.tokyo/archives/159904\",\"title\":\"Talk to AI VTuber 'Asahara Izumi' and Real Machines Start Moving - She Operates a Stage and Laser Herself to Perform 3D Measurement, on Demo at CEATEC 2026 Through 10/16\"}]","lintFlagsJson":null,"lintHits":0,"costUsd":0,"inputTokens":4763,"outputTokens":711,"status":"published","repairAttempts":0,"nextRepairAt":null,"factsAttemptedAt":1791954434,"createdAt":"2026-10-14T05:02:56.000Z","publishedAt":"2026-10-14T05:06:07.000Z","updatedAt":"2026-10-14T05:06:07.000Z"},"cluster":{"id":"c_45fbf3c9a93b83db8681f8c7","canonicalTitle":"AIVTuber「浅原 泉」に話しかけると、現実の機械が動き出す　ステージとレーザを自分で操作して3D計測、CEATEC 2026で10/16まで実演中","representativeArticleId":"a_e8df4b9f1d8dfa200ba3f83c","sourceCount":1,"writtenSourceCount":1,"writeAttempts":0,"isSolo":true,"entitiesJson":"{\"anime_titles\":[],\"manga_titles\":[],\"work_titles\":[\"CEATEC 2026\"],\"studios\":[\"Asahara Giken\"],\"people\":[\"Yuta Asano\",\"Izumi Asahara\"],\"type\":\"event\",\"domain\":\"vtuber\",\"is_roundup\":false}","contentType":"news","status":"published","firstSeenAt":"2026-10-14T02:55:10.000Z","lastSeenAt":"2026-10-14T02:55:10.000Z","updatedAt":"2026-10-14T05:06:06.000Z"},"attribution":[{"source":"PANORA","url":"https://panora.tokyo/archives/159904","title":"AIVTuber「浅原 泉」に話しかけると、現実の機械が動き出す　ステージとレーザを自分で操作して3D計測、CEATEC 2026で10/16まで実演中"}],"entities":{"anime_titles":[],"manga_titles":[],"work_titles":["CEATEC 2026"],"studios":["Asahara Giken"],"people":["Yuta Asano","Izumi Asahara"],"type":"event","domain":"vtuber","is_roundup":false},"keyFacts":null}
