"Well, today, I am happy to announce that we have officially completed phase one of our Woven City Campus".

2. SOUNDBITE (English) Akio Toyoda, Chairman of Toyota Motor Corporation:
"Located at the base of beautiful Mount Fuji in Japan, Woven City is more than just a place to live, work and play. Woven City is a place where people can invent and develop all kinds of new products and ideas. It’s a living laboratory where the residents are willing participants, giving inventors the opportunity to freely test their ideas in a secure real-life setting."

6. SOUNDBITE (English) Akio Toyoda, Chairman of Toyota Motor Corporation:
"We think of Woven City as a test course for mobility where we can develop any number of solutions, from personal mobility devices like wheelchair race bikes, because everybody should enjoy the joys of going first… to drones that safely escort you home at night… to interactive care robots that provide support and companionship for the elderly… to flying cars like this one made by our friends at Joby making the trip from Woven City to Tokyo fast and traffic-free, and for partners like Joby we have even transformed one of our former factory buildings into a laboratory big enough to house an aeroplane."

7. Wide of Akio Toyoda on stage explaining the human-centric machine learning technology used to teach robots how to fold t-shirts the Japanese way
UPSOUND (English) Akio Toyoda, Chairman of Toyota Motor Corporation:
"So here is one of our team members using handheld cameras to show a robot the Japanese way to fold a t-shirt, and now here’s the robot the next day. After studying the data that was sent to it, it’s learned overnight how to execute a three point four perfectly."

8. Wide of stage with projected promotional video showing Toyota’s autonomous tandem drift technology, which assists rally racing car drivers by drifting for them

9. SOUNDBITE (English) Akio Toyoda, Chairman of Toyota Motor Corporation:
"Now, I know what you are thinking. Will this Woven City make Toyota any money? Well, maybe not. But that’s okay. Because as global citizens I believe Toyota has a responsibility to invest in our collective future, to share what we’ve learned with others and support new ideas that benefit the planet and its people. And that, more than anything else is why we’ve created Woven City."

10. Wide of Toyodo giving remarks before leaving stage and audience applauding at the end of the conference
