Eighty elementary school students in Tokyo attended a “digital class” to learn about Lexus car production. Using a cutting-edge communication device, the children made a virtual visit to the Miyata (Fukuoka) Lexus factory from the Lexus showroom in Aoyama, Tokyo. Instead of merely watching a live-stream movie, they toured around and asked questions using an avatar robot named Newme. Source: Monoist
