Masayoshi Ikeda, vice president of New wave, tells more details: "When we started planning this project, we had a simpler studio in mind, but once we considered the possibility of inviting the public to the studio in the future, we realized that a stage for compositions with green backgrounds was not conducive to that. It was then that it occurred to us that it might be feasible to integrate the audience into an extended reality studio and that it would even look better in Internet broadcasts. We also designed the studio with the intention of it being compatible with remote broadcasts, without the need for a cell phone. conventional exteriors.

Today, the facilities have already been used for different broadcasts for Internet television platforms, company events and children's programs: “Virtual productions in which extended reality technology is used together with computerized elements, instead of having to deal with studio design and lighting, lead to reductions in expenses, and many of our clients are taking advantage of this.”
