Comments from The Time Machine Project Leader, Daisaku Kawase

Imagine witnessing a historic moment that changed the world, experiencing a legendary concert with many people, or retracing nostalgic streets where you had many dates with a beloved one when you were young. These are feats requiring travel beyond space-time that were merely human dreams: dreams that can soon be realized through VR technology and new ideas.  Right now, we are on the verge of opening the doors to completely new worlds for mankind. Through The Time Machine, we welcome people to feel this world full of reality beyond imagination.
