At the beginning of the movie, Mr. Kurata's roots are said to have begun modeling iron with the influence of his father who was a blacksmith.





It was around the summer vacation in high school that I started making things with iron first.




There is such a past, Kurata who started a work to make Western gate and not Western Kinzaki which makes swords etc. even if saying blacksmith.





Recently I am working on an unusual modeling such as a robot so now it seems "I do not know what I am.




beforeMake 1/1 Scope Dog, The reason why I wanted to make something that people could ride actually is the reason why I came to making this time Kurasutasu.




Kurata says that he wanted to taste such a feeling anyway, I do not know if the robot of 4 meters is scary or fun.









He also said that he entered this world with his imagination like a father who was not a professional studying but a blacksmith.





It seems that you are making things in the style that you want to do first at the beginning and go forward while studying towards it.






It was not a Gundam but a bottoms, because I wanted to make something "not a pilot, anyone can ride".






Kuratas' scenes of appearance at Wonder Festival 2012 [summer], which was the first large-scale public release of Kratas, is as follows.









Mr. Kurata talks about wanting to do survival game and fighting fight etc. using multiple Kuratas in the future.

Yoshizaki says that I was happy to have the opportunity to touch with this level of robot so quickly though I was planning to make a huge robot by myself someday.




Originally the operation instruction software for humanoid robot "V - Sido (Bushido)It's a developer of.






In addition, it seems that we have also developed a simulator exclusively for "V-Sido" in this project.





Yoshizaki says that it feels cool in the place where the cylinder of the robot moves and where the circuit glows.






He seems to feel romance in the formation of a robot that a combination of high level artifacts becomes closer to human.








The scenery that is actually working is like this.






Even at the venue of One Fest, the adjustment was done just before.











The control stick is as follows.




It is important for Ms. Yoshizaki that the aim is to spread robots that anyone can easily manipulate using "V-Shido" software by creating breakthroughs that robots can enter into their living space about.














Like Windows, "V-Shido" becomes a standard OS of robot existence and it is very good if the robot becomes state of penetration into life.



The ambition of the two geniuses is still in the future
