At Designium, we are not just about creating innovative augmented reality (AR) experiences, we are also dedicated to exploring the rich tapestry of cultures and traditions that inspire our creations. Under the concept of the Expo 2025 Osaka Kansai “People’s Living Lab — A laboratory for a future society”, we aim to utilize cutting-edge technology to promote Osaka’s charm and drum up excitement for the Expo. To achieve this, we have released an AR content featuring “Billiken,” a beloved symbol of Osaka among locals and tourists.
