Japanese Love Day 6 - Technology

The Japanese are also known for their technology. They are amazing in creating things that no one has thought of, or at least they do it before anyone else can.

One of the things that they have created is Self Heating Clothing. They saw a problem with how to keep warm in winter without having to wear bulky clothes and they came up with this fabric that absorbs the heat generated by the body and traps it so that you stay warm without having to wear bulky or thick clothes.
The fabric is called Heat Tech and it's created with Japan technology. And not only that, the people of UNIQLO are now selling their Dry Lux clothes for women that they claims it's like air conditioned clothes that keep you cool in the summer and Silky Dry clothes for men which claims to keep you dry and it neutralizes odors in clothes. I must say I have never seen anything like that and I can't wait to try these clothes.

But clothes are not the only thing that Japanese excel at in their technology, they have also created Humanoid Robots that look a lot like people and they talk and move like us. They created some for the fashion industry and recently they made some to be able to act as the body of Vocaloids and sing with the software.
Japan is one of the leading nations in the fields of scientific research, technology, machinery and medical research. Some of it's most famous technological companies include the well known Fuji and Sony, Panasonic, Canon, Fujitsu, Hitachi, Sharp, NEC, Epson, Toshiba and Toyota, Honda, Nissan, Mazda, Mitsubishi, Nintendo, and Subaru.

And then it takes us to cars.  Japan is home to six of the world's fifteen largest automobile manufacturers in the world. And Japan's more important technological contributions are found in the fields of electronics, machinery, robotics, optics, chemicals, semiconductors and metals.

I don't think that any other country excels in so many technological fields so that's' why today's Japanese quality of the day is Technology.

What do you think about the humanoids that they have created? What is the technological invention that you are most grateful for?

Today I am going to reach out to children all over the world and give you a link to an organization that is working along with the Bezos Family Foundation that will donate $200,000 if they receive 100,000 paper origami cranes. The website for Paper Cranes for Japan is working with children and adults all over the world for this cause. They will even send you pre-paid postage labels for boxes of over 50 cranes so you can mail it to them. Check it out and help. Thanks!
