Abstract

In recent years, most of traditional craftsmanship is declining because of aging skilled craftspeople and fewer successors. Therefore, methods for digital archiving of such traditional craftsmanship are needed. We have constructed a wearable skill handing down system focused on first-person visual and audio information and biological information of a craftsman. We used instrumental information associated with the usage of the tools for evaluating the effect of proposed wearable display system of intangible cultural heritage. In this paper, we show the result of archiving and training on the skills of Kamisuki, Japanese traditional papermaking.
