The Hobonichi Globe is a globe leveraging AR (Augmented Reality) technology. By
downloading the free Hobonichi Globe App into your smartphone or
tablet, you can enjoy the AR contents all over the world in multiple
languages.
There are no borders or country names on this globe, just as the Earth seen from space. Its diameter of only about 15 cm (5.9 inches), means that even young children can handle it easily. The size also allows you to place it on your desk or bookshelf.
The
Hobonichi Globe 5.9 inch model comes with a polycarbonate stand that
prevents it from rolling around when placed in your room. It is also useful when you want to enjoy the AR contents, as you can spin the globe around without having it roll away from you.
When you view the Hobonichi Globe through your smartphone or tablet
camera, various types of information pop up and you can see the Earth as
it is viewed from space with its current status.
You
can view the real-time changes of clouds, rain and wind, which are
automatically updated every 30 minutes and shown with beautiful visuals. The sun angle and the transition between daytime and night are also
projected onto the Hobonichi Globe, based on the real-time data.
Moreover, YouTube clips from the live cameras all over the world can be viewed on the app. Enjoy
the Earth in real-time, feel the physical touch of the globe in front
of you and view information from space and the countries on our planet.
