The city of Tokyo hosted the 20th ITS World Congress from October 14th-18th.  Thousands of delegates, exhibitors and visitors, including members of the general public, gathered in this incredible venue to view the latest technology offerings, network with peers and attend sessions. Not even the unwanted attention of Typhoon Wipha, that caused the event to be cancelled for half a day, could dampen the enthusiasm of the attendees. To cover the events of the week, ITS International, the official media partner, produced 3 on-site issues of The Daily News.  These were distributed to attendees each morning, but in case you were not able to make it to World Congress, here they are in digital format for your information and enjoyment.
