Our CMO Okuyama participated as an AR production experience lecturer. Our company held three club activities with the goal of “jacking the streets of Shibuya with AR.”
Utilizing a no-code AR creation tool, we held an AR creation course, created a demo, created a work that jacked up the city of Shibuya with AR, and finally, we all went out into the city of Shibuya and saw the “AR decorations” created by the children. We have planned an experiential learning experience where you can see the scenery of Shibuya.
