Miku Miku Akushu gives you the nearest thing to shaking hands with Hatsune Miku

Many fans often dream of rubbing shoulders and shaking hands with their favorite idols, but in the case of Hatsune Miku, that may not even be possible as the angelic diva is well… a virtual one.

A new technology combing the Occulus Rift and a robotic arm however may give you the closest thing, introducing the Miku Miku Akushu!

Introduced last September 23, 2013, this exciting new way to greet everybody’s favorite virtual diva is now on display in the 2013 Digital Content Expo held in the*National Museum of Emerging Science and Innovation (Miraikan).

An Occulus Rift provides a head mounted display of the virtual diva and a robotic hand lets you shake her “hand”. The hand comes with sensors and uses a 3D touch interface known as Novint Falcon which makes the robotic hand go up and down to give you that feeling that it really is Miku shaking your hand.

With the Novint Falcon 3D Touch controller, you can feel a realistic sense of touch in all of your video games. Whether you game for fun or as a competitive gamer, the Falcon will bring a new level of immersion and control to your gaming experience. It will even bring back new life to old games. Quick exchangeable grips (handles) will further enhance the immersive experience.

The Miku Miku Akushu will be on display at the expo until October 26 so if you happen to be in Japan during that time, why not drop by and say hi to her?

Hatsune Miku: Project Mirai 2 7-minute-long featured songs trailer [Video]

With just five more weeks to go before the release of Hatsune Miku: Project Mirai 2, Sega has streamed on the Web a new trailer for the rhythm game that shows off most of the tracks featured in the game itself.



Apart from 20 brand new tracks, Project Mirai 2 also includes all of the original 27 tracks from the first Project Mirai game, for a total of 47 songs. The developers decided to throw in all of the songs from the first game partially because Project Mirai 2 introduces a brand new way to play that will result in a different experience from that of the first game, and partially because they wanted to include all of the costumes from the first game too — one of the new features is the ability to mix and match hairstyles and costumes, just like with Good Smile Company’s Nendoroid series of figures.

Unlike the Project Diva series on PlayStation platforms, all songs featured in the Project Mirai series are the full versions. The trade-off, of course, is that in Project Diva the focus is more on the intricately-created promotional videos that run in the background while you’re playing a song, whereas the ones for the Project Mirai series are easier to create.

Hatsune Miku: Project Mirai 2 for the Nintendo 3DS comes out in Japan on November 28, 2013. You’ll need a Japanese 3DS to play this — games on the platform are region-locked, unlike on the PS Vita!
