Today, we conducted an academic visit to Red Tokyo Tower and teamLab Planets. At Red Tokyo Tower, there were numerous virtual reality (VR) attractions, along with several augmented reality (AR) attractions. We enjoyed experimenting with the concepts we've been studying for the past few weeks. Additionally, they utilized projection technology that appeared somewhat outdated compared to what we observed at the University of Osaka, but it remained functional for our purposes.


After visiting Red Tokyo Tower, we went to teamLab Planets. There were a lot more people at teamLab Planets than at Red Tokyo Tower, but it was still really cool. We got to interact with a bunch of exhibits, ranging from a floating flower garden to an AR koi pond. Other exhibits included a forest made of LED lights and a room filled with giant balls.



After we finished exploring teamLab Planets, we were given some free time to do whatever we wanted. Everyone then split off in different directions.
