Future Cafe at SO-HO-sai (University of Tsukuba festival)
Rakuten Institute of Technology and the University of Tsukuba, School of Arts and Design, held a “Future Café” exhibition at Soho Sai (the university festival) from November 4th through November 5th.
Our “Future Cafe” exhibition demonstrated a vision of the future featuring entertainment technology that users can enjoy in the context of a café experience and the connection between users of real stores and the internet. We also displayed the results of our daily research activities that we have worked on as our laboratory.
There were approximately 700 visitors that came to our future café and we won the award of “Kantousho-award” of the University of Tsukuba festival Grand Prix. Thank you for joining our “Future Café”. We deeply appreciate that we had a lot of attendance.
