A Virtual Tour of the University of Tokyo

Today, I enjoyed taking a virtual tour of the Hongo Campus at the University of Tokyo.

When I walked into Yasuda Auditorium, President Gokami was in the middle of his lecture (*^^*)

I heard it was created by three students.

According to what the representative of the University of Tokyo VR Club told me, the club has over 100 members and is engaged in truly cutting-edge initiatives. I’d love to collaborate with them more.
