We placed special importance on intuitive operation using AR ( augmented reality) so that a child could enjoy it. This allowed users to experience space even without technical knowledge. At first users can view a list of the passage information in a calendar form showing where the robot has passed. Next, you can confirm passage as this information can be verified (time when visible and direction to see) intuitively with AR. And you can display a passing course. The course of passage can also be displayed on a map. In addition, you users can easily find the positions such as of stars or the Milky Way.
