Challenge yourself with
the javelin throw in a virtual stadium!
Experience a simulated javelin throw,
an athletics event, using TDK sensor technology.
The distance will change according to the angle and speed of the throw
A TDK motion sensor (6-axis IMU) is equipped inside the javelin. When a user moves the javelin, this sensor detects that movement and reflects it in the javelin on the screen. Distance in the game is calculated based on the “angle” and “acceleration” of the javelin once it is thrown.
Equipped with TDK motion sensor technology
Motion sensors (6-axis IMU) are sensors capable of detecting acceleration in 3 axes (forward/backward, left/right, and up/down) and angular velocity in 3 axes (forward/backward, left/right, and up/down). They also come equipped in the smartphones we use every day as well as being used in various other scenarios such as map applications.

A commemorative snapshot at the photo spot
A photo spot to allow you to take a picture alongside a monitor displaying the distance you recorded has been made available for your use outside the stadium. Take a picture to remember your glorious record and share it with everyone you know!
TDK and the World Athletics Championships
This is the moment the athletes have been waiting for, pushing their abilities to the limit, pursuing the passion within to improve and transform themselves. Likewise, we at TDK have continued to take on challenges to push the limits of technology and improve society.
This shared courage, also highlighted in our Corporate Principles, is a major reason TDK supports the World Athletics Championships.
We also want to ensure this passion to pursue better is passed on to the next generation: the children watching the athletes at the World Athletics Championships, encouraged to transform into athletes like them.
We at TDK support everyone inspired by the World Athletics Championships Tokyo 25 to transform themselves and the world for the better.
