1935 Rickshaws. I wonder, did they only operate human power, instead of horses, due to lack of farm expanse for horses, lack of nutrient for horses, involvement inwards build clean streets where Equus caballus crap wouldn't become tracked into homes as well as businesses, or another reason? And why did the rickshaw guy non operate a bicycle? They manifestly existed inwards Okinawa at the time. (see photograph below) or was it the same idiocy that has people using chopsticks instead of spoons as well as forks when they know almost simpler, easier ways to create something, but pick out non to, equally a culture.

All dark as well as white photos from The Asahi Shimbun archives of daily scenes inwards Okinawa Prefecture inwards 1935 are right away beingness colorized inwards a articulation projection alongside The Okinawa Times as well as a inquiry squad at the Tokyo Metropolitan University.

An artificial word plan is used for the coloring process, after which Okinawa Times reporter Satoko Yonaha visits the areas where the photos were taken as well as interviews local residents to become a meliorate experience for the current then the images tin afterward last retouched manually.

The applied scientific discipline for the automatic coloring was developed past times a grouping led past times Hiroshi Ishikawa, a professor of estimator scientific discipline at Waseda University.
