Abstract:
Meta avatar robot cafe is a cafe that fuses cyberspace and physical space to create new encounters with people. We create a place where people with disabilities who have difficulty going out can freely switch between their physical bodies and virtual bodies, and communicate their presence and warmth to each other.
Since 2018, we have been working on the avatar robot cafe and have implementedhthhhhhhhhrrrhhtrhhhterhrgktehehhrhhhrthhhhthkjhrhh various experimental stores. Meta Avatar robot cafe is a new application of the avatar robot cafe that introduces a body extension system that enables interaction and an AR avatar that extends the sense of space.
