Cutting edge technology - St. Valentine’s day from Space WINDS meets WHITE CLOUD

 

Why not make your St. Valentine’s Day unique this year?

“KIZUNA” will send your love message on your behalf.

 

Collaborative work between the Wideband InterNetworking engineering test and Demonstration Satellite “KIZUNA” (WINDS) and cutting edge “cloud computing” enables you to send a St. Valentine’s day message from space, some 36,000 km away from the Earth, to your loved one.
Your emotions will be shared through the KIZUNA, which has a high-speed and large-volume communication ability, to your loved one who will receive it through a cloud computing system.
Both male and female senders are eligible. Please register your e-mail address to participate.

* This event is one of the basic experiments of the KIZUNA.
* We will use the “White Cloud” of SOFTBANK Telecom Corp for the cloud computing system.

 

The recruitment has been closed. Thank you for your application.
