[Collaboration with Other Societies]<\/strong>
\u3000<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2014, \u201cThe Federation of Imaging Societies<\/mark><\/a>\u201d has been established by the Imaging Society of Japan, the Institute of Image Electronics Engineers of Japan, the Japan Society for Printing Science and Technology and the Society of Photographic Science and Technology, Japan.  They are expanding their fields for discussion and information sharing by co-sponsoring or mutually supporting events. In addition, we are expanding our collaboration with the Visual Society of Japan, such as co-sponsoring a “Basic Course on Vision and Images” for beginners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ISJ also arranges international collaboration with the Society for Imaging Science and Technology (IS&T) and Chinese Society for Imaging Science and Technology by supporting or co-sponsoring international conferences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2017, a collaboration project with the Vision Society of Japan has begun.  From July 2018, we started “Basic Course on Vision and Image (4 times in total)”.  By training engineers who are familiar with both the fields of vision science and image engineering, we aim to evolve into a technology that efficiently draws out the power of images.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
