A Japanese Vision for the Digital Transformation of Public Spaces
XR studio Psychic VR Lab from Japan has a clear vision for the age of augmented reality. What will this metaverse look like? I took a close look at an early demo in Tokyo.
Digital things in public spaces – that’s something we don’t see frequently in Germany and in Western countries in general. Digital displays in buses and trains are often conspicuous by their failure, or not noticed at all because they offer nothing interesting. The best you can hope for are a few scattered advertising screens showing news snippets in train stations.
Germans can’t imagine anything like New York’s Times Square in their country. Gigantic advertising screens at intersections, even with directional sound for waiting pedestrians? Serious riots seem inevitable.
Japan: Hold my beer!
