A new place to belong and learn ーonly possible in virtual space.

The Virtual Learning Platform (VLP) project offers a new place to belong and learn for children who have difficulty attending schools or educational support centers, through a virtual space. VLP is a virtual space on a 3D metaverse platform. Using a PC, tablet, or other device, users can move their avatars and interact with teachers, friends, and support staff. The space features a variety of areas and supports a wide range of activities both across Tokyo and within each municipality, including individual learning, classes, one-on-one meetings, events, and casual conversations.

Various ways to communicate

VLP allows users to communicate in various ways depending on the situation, such as avatar reactions, text chat, and voice chat. They can also choose spaces based on their needs. In the chat space, users can have quick casual chats or sit down for group conversations. In a private meeting room, users can talk one-on-one or in small groups and take their time to speak without worrying about being overheard.
