Osaka-Kansai Expo Special Exhibit Feature

Exhibit at Future Life Experience (FLE) at the Japan International Exposition, EXPO2025, Osaka, Japan.



In the near future, the time will come when humans will build a base for long-term stays on the Moon. The Yoshida Project aims to develop an AI robot that can build a base in the lunar surface, an environment where it is difficult for humans to be active. In this exhibition, video projection of lunar scenes and demonstrations by actual robots will provide an immersive experience of the future lunar cities that will be built by AI robots. We invite you to visit the exhibition and ask yourself what kind of future you imagine for the moon.
