Calling for corporate partners to participate in our first beta-test of iDovatar, an online platform enabling voice communication in phygital* spaces.

*Phygital is a word blend used to describe the integration of the digital and physical world, and that which provides a unique interactive experience for the user.

One&Co Member Collaboration “iDovatar” by dotD × GAOGAO × JR EAST

Over the last 10 months, dotD APAC Pte Ltd (Singapore, CEO: Tsubasa Sasaki), a business creation firm, has been developing the iDovatar prototypes in collaboration with GAOGAO Pte Ltd, co-working space One&Co, established by East Japan Railway Company (JR EAST). The joint project aimed to explore possibilities for real-time communication in a phygital space using voice technology and avatars.

As we kick-off the next stage of the iDovatar project, we are calling for interested corporate partners to join us in experiencing the beta version of the platform from April 1, 2021. This is the first time iDovatar is made open to external users outside of One&Co. For more information about “iDovatar”, please refer to the following link.
