About events, about DOUBLE DRIVER, about the Zetsumerizer, about Delta Gear's voice recognition

Hello everyone, this is Funasen.

There are many announcements today.
I hope you will read to the end.

The announcement has already begun,
We are pleased to announce that we will be holding the first-ever solo exhibition event for the CSM series!
The title is "THE HENSHIN COMPLETE SELECTION MODIFICATION EXHIBITION vol.1"!!
The event will be held for two days on Saturday, December 7th and Sunday, December 8th, 2019 at Bellesalle Akihabara in Akihabara, Tokyo.



It's sure to be a really fun and cool exhibition event, so I hope you'll come along.
Details of the event will be released in due course.

And to commemorate this event,
We have decided to sell a reprint of the first product in the CSM series, the "CSM DOUBLE DRIVER"!


We have had CSM email surveys where people have listed on several occasions products they would like to see restocked, and this product was by far the most requested to be restocked.
This is only natural, as this product was the first in the series and was released at a time when it was not widely known.
I think there are not many people who have it.
With this in mind, we came up with this project, in the hopes of reaching as many people as possible by re-releasing it to commemorate the event.

However, this is not just a reprint. As the name ver.1.5 suggests, this is a version with some changes to the specifications!
Many aspects have been made closer to those in the film, so even those who bought the first edition back then should definitely check it out.

However, we would like to inform you in advance about some of the renewals.
There are no changes to the audio specifications for "CSM DOUBLE DRIVER ver.1.5".
This is a "reprint" product, and there are some changes to the appearance and external functions.
Please note.

There are two ways to sell this product:
① "Lottery sale" where you can pick up your order at the event venue
② This is a pre-order sale on PREMIUM BANDAI, and will be delivered in February 2020.

Details of this product will be released next week, and lottery applications for ① will begin.
① is a limited quantity item and winners can pick it up at the event venue.
② is a regular PREMIUM BANDAI product for which reservations will begin after the lottery results are announced.
This will be delivered in late February.
If you missed out on the lottery or cannot attend the event, you can purchase tickets here.
Thank you very much.

Well, that's all from the CSM announcement.

Next up, the second piece of information!
Available from today on PREMIUM BANDAI
Pre-orders for the "HENSHIN BELT DX Zetsumerizer" are now open!


This is the first time a normal monster has transformed using a belt since Double's "Gaia Driver," and it is an extremely memorable item depicted in the movie.
The included Zetsumerize Key is also a DX specification, which not only allows you to transform into Magia with the Zetsumerizer, but also has sound synchronization with the three belts: HIDEN ZERO-ONE DRIVER, Aims Shot Riser, and Metsuboujinrai Force Riser (scheduled for release in November).

By putting it on and pressing the button on the left side, the transformation sound will be activated.
The gimmick is that if you press the button again after transforming, you can unleash the special move "Zetsumetsunova."
(The special moves are not currently depicted in the game, but the sounds they make are included in the toys.)
There are already four HENSHIN BELT for KAMEN RIDER ZERO-ONE.
The Progrise Keys are linked in every way, and the more you collect, the more variety there is in the way you can play with them, making this a really fun toy, so be sure to check it out!

The included Zetsumerise Keys are "Dodo" and "Mammoth".
These are the Magia that will appear in the film. However, the ones that everyone is currently impressed by are different Magia.
These Zetsumerise Keys are...
They will also be released in our "Candy Toys" and "Gashapon" series!!
Please see the page below.

Starting at the end of this month, the two "candy toy versions," "Ekarmagia" and "Neo Himagia," will be sold in candy sections across the country, while the two "gachapon versions," "Bellosa Magia" and "Queneo Magia," will be sold in gashapon sections.
These will be released as part of the "Sound Progrise Key Series," but of course they also work with the DX Zetsumerizer, so we hope you will collect them together!


Finally, for today's post, I would like to provide some additional information about CSM Delta Gear's voice recognition.

We have received feedback from some customers that they are having difficulty with voice recognition.
The voice recognition for this product works by inputting the appropriate voice in a way that the IC responds, based on the correct method described in electronic manual.
I hope you will understand this.

electronic manual states the following:



The voice recognition IC in this product has a performance that means that if you speak loudly at a close distance, the sound waveform is too large and cannot be picked up.
Nowadays, high-performance voice recognition is widespread in smartphones and has become a part of everyday life, but the specs that are considered standard are the latest performance of smartphones and other devices, and when compared to that standard, the performance of the voice recognition ICs used in toys is inferior.
It is not possible to pick up all voices, so the IC needs to pick up the voice at the appropriate volume, pronunciation, and distance.
What you need is what's in the image above.
Also, regarding pronunciation, you will need to try inputting it several times and adjust it to what the IC can recognize.
Generally speaking, your voice will be easier to recognise if you speak in a low volume.
Even if you have a loud voice, it tends to be easier to hear if you are farther away from the microphone.
Therefore, Kitazaki's ``Transformation'' is more easily recognized than Mihara's ``Transform!''

However, for those times when you want to shout "Transform!" out loud, there is a function called "pseudo voice recognition mode."
I have explained this in a previous blog post.
https://toy.bandai.co.jp/series/rider/topics/detail/897/

Since it has essentially the same specifications as the DX, you can transform by speaking freely, and you can even say "Transform!" out loud like Mihara.



We hope you understand that this is the limitation of the voice recognition capabilities of current toys.

*By the way, if you do not "untransform" after transforming once, the "transform" sound will not be recognized even if you are only using the phone, so please make sure to properly untransform before enjoying transformation play again.

The volume is set to the same level as the Faiz Phone of the CSM Faiz Gear.
Many people may find it smaller than the Kaixaphone, but unlike the Faizphone and Kaixaphone, it is a product that must be held close to the ear, so safety regulations mean that it was not possible to set the volume as loud as with the Kaixaphone.
Those who have played with the DX Hiden Rise Phone, which was released the day before yesterday, or Build's DX Build Phone will know that the volume of cell phone toys is set low for safety reasons, taking into consideration that the toys are played with against the ear.
However, because it is a CSM, if the volume were to be as loud as the Hiden Rise Phone, it would be too loud for an adult product, so we made adjustments with all the relevant parties and were able to set the volume to the current level.
We would appreciate your understanding on this matter as well.


That's all for today's blog.
The next update will be next week on Tuesday, October 15th.
We will introduce the CSM DOUBLE DRIVER (ver.1.5) in detail.

Well then!
