Announcement of "2nd XR Comprehensive Exhibition Summer"

Announcement Service/Product

From June 29th (Wednesday) to July 1st (Friday), 2022, we will exhibit at the "2nd XR Comprehensive Exhibition Summer" to be held at Tokyo Big Sight.

At the Fontworks booth (booth number: 25-50), there will be a "Font Simulator beta version" that combines fonts and 3D technology, allowing you to check the visibility of fonts for each scene on the web, and fonts in an AR environment. Exhibited "AR Font Tester" that allows you to experience the display.
We will introduce the production of original fonts that meet customer needs, such as Universal Design (universal design) fonts with excellent visibility, UC (universal communication) fonts with unified multilingual designs, and corporate fonts.

Please take this opportunity to visit our booth.
We look forward to seeing you there.

"Font Simulator beta version"

Even if you have not created the actual product (car meter or IV pack), you can see the product image from anywhere in 360 degrees.
You can freely change the intensity of outside light and lighting, the type of font, and the size of the font, making it possible to check in various situations. Reproduced in 3D graphics.

AR Font Tester

Various messages can be displayed in the AR space just by wearing lightweight smart glasses.
The appearance of fonts on paper or a display is completely different from that of fonts expressed in space. You can actually experience what kind of font is easy to see and what kind of font is difficult to see.

What is the XR Comprehensive Exhibition?

XR technology (collective name for VR, AR, and MR technologies) is currently attracting attention as a technology that will revolutionize life and society, such as “Metaverse” and “Digital Twin”.
We will hold a special exhibition “XR Comprehensive Exhibition” specializing in XR. XR Products that can be used in a wide range of industries such as manufacturing, construction, real estate, medical care, and entertainment will be exhibited together.
