The entertainment shokugan “Hako Vision” which allows for 3D projection mapping and 3D holograms to be reproduced in the palm of one’s hand, will be released by Bandai on Jan. 27, 2014.
With Bandai’s proprietary “Hako Vision Technology,” a “beautiful world interweaved with images and figures” inside an approximately 8.5-centimeter square box comes to life. The technology involves the use of a figure and clear plate that comes included in the package and a smartphone that is placed screen side down on top of the box after reading the 2D code printed on its side, which queues up an exclusive video.
The first model to be released is called “Tokyo Hikari Vision” and is of the 3D projection mapping that took place during the event Tokyo Michiterasu 2012. The second model is called “Tokyo National Museum Karakuri” and is of a special art exhibit opened in October in celebration of the 60th anniversary of Nippon Television. The second round of models will release next spring and utilize characters.
^1^ Shokugan is a popular type of toy that comes with a piece of candy.
