Welcome to the 13th Laser Display and Lighting Conference, LDC 2024!
LDC is an international conference on laser displays, laser lighting, and related technologies. The 1st LDC was held in Yokohama,Japan in 2012. After that, LDCs were held in Yokohama, Japan (2013, 2015, 2017~2019), in Taichung, Taiwan (2014), and in Jena,Germany (2016). The 9th and 10th LDC were intended to be held in Yokohama, Japan, but switched to be on-line conferences owing tothe COVID-19 situation. The 11th LDC was held as a hybrid on-line and in-person conference in 2022. The 12th LDC was held inYokohama in-person. Then, LDC 2024 is also being held as an in-person conference in Yokohama from 23rd to 26th April 2024. LDC
2024 is sponsored by the Optical Society of Japan, in cooperation with several academic societies and associations, and is operated by
the Laser Display Research Group, the Optical Society of Japan.
LDC 2024 is intended to provide a central forum for the update and review of scientific and technical information on laser display
and lighting covering a wide range of fields from fundamental research to systems and applications.
A total of 40 papers will be presented during the 4-day conference, consisting of 2 keynote talks, 22 invited papers, and 16
contributed papers. Several papers will be also presented as posters. It is notable that number of submissions is almost the same with
before and during the COVID-19 pandemic, which is due to the kind interest and great support from the LDC community to recoverfrom the difficult situation caused by COVID-19. A few post-deadline papers may be accepted.
In LDC 2024, a special session focusing on advanced XR and Metaverse technologies will be held on the 24th, where we will havestimulating invited talks from expert speakers. An exciting special session entitled ‘Laser Applications for Moving Platforms’ will also
be held with a number of distinguished speakers on 26th April. In these special sessions, state-of-the-art visible laser technology for XR,Metaverse and moving target applications, will be presented, and discussed. After all the technical sessions, a ceremony for the LDC Best
Paper Award and the LDC Student Award will be held for exceptional papers commended for their outstanding achievement.
We would like to extend our sincere thanks to all the presenters and participants of LDC 2024 for their contribution to the successof the conference. We also express our sincere thanks to the Takano-Eiichi Hikari-Kagaku-Kikin (Optical Science Foundation), theJapanese Society of Applied Physics, for the financial support. We hope that all the attendees enjoy the conference.
