Hatsune Miku: Project Mirais AR Feature Lets You Take Vocaloid Photos With Your Mii

Hatsune Miku and Future Stars: Project Mirai lets you view augmented reality Vocaloid performances, but we don’t know much more about this feature at the moment, other than that you can take 3D photos of the AR models and include your Mii in the same picture as well.

 

Sega demonstrated the AR feature with screenshots on their Miku blog, although they didn’t show off Mii functionality:

The other feature they showed was one that was recently revealed in Famitsu magazine: the ability to write and share comments that are overlayed over videos, NicoNico-style, in the game’s Theatre mode. Here’s how that works:

        • aoihana

          Hmmm… for $4 I will do, but will blur Miku’s face. (◕‿◕✿)

          • MagDX

            FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF*flips bed in rage* you drive a hard bargain.

          • aoihana

            Kidding aside, I wonder if you could take pictures with other people’s Mii? If so, I’d be more than happy to do it for people! (◕‿◕✿)

        same here :D

  • MagDX

    Edit: somehow NOOOOOW my post shows up

  • aoihana

    I was about to send in a tip as I just saw this on Sega’s blog early in the morning! Curse you, Ishaan! (*^ワ^*)

    When I found out that your Mii can take pictures with Nendoroid Miku, I think I melted a little inside! That’s a very awesome feature(I was thinking of Photo Shopping my Mii in there!)! \(@ ̄∇ ̄@)/ 

    Though, earlier when Sega mentioned AR concerts, I figured that it would include like a stage, or something, for some reason! Or at the very least, include other Vocaloids, but it appears that Miku is the only AR character. (*≧m≦*)

    Regardless, it’s a very exciting feature nonetheless! (ノ>▽<。)ノ

    The commenting feature is very awesome, too, but it’s a shame it only works via street pass! Sadly, we wont be able to enjoy such a feature overseas! (´∩`。)

    Miku-san Kawaii!

    Well, yes, yes she is indeed! (◕‿◕✿)

    I’m going to be using that alot  my deviantart will be full http://shawnsenpai.deviantart.com/

    You’re saying it can take photos with MY Mii, who lives on an incompatible system?

    • http://twitter.com/goodjobKebo Kebo Martin

      There are Miis on the 3DS too. You can import your Wii Miis to the 3DS which I still yet to learn

      • http://whatistheexcel.com/ Excel-2012

        I have a 3DS Mii, but I have reason to believe that the 3DS holding it will never be able to do this.

  • http://twitter.com/DanijoEX DanijoEX

    I say that’s a neat feature.

  • http://myfigurecollection.net/collection/DrakosAmatras DrakosAmatras

    Hm. Can’t say I care much about the Mii feature. I don’t mind that the Mii creation system is limited, but the Miis still look rather lifeless in my eyes. Which, again, is fine, until some games slap their heads on their in-game models. Some of the Miis in my machine range from awkward to disturbing when they appeared in Go Vacation… including the one that’s supposed to be me.

    The scrolling comment feature is a pretty nice emulation of NicoNico though.

    • aoihana

      Hmmm… Have you tried the Mii Studio on the 3DS. I think it’s a lot more improved, and in the words of Nintendo, robust than the Wii counterpart. I couldn’t even re-create myself on the Wii! (*≧m≦*)

      • http://myfigurecollection.net/collection/DrakosAmatras DrakosAmatras

        No, I haven’t – you know, those minor annoyances like lacking a 3DS and all. Can’t say I’m impressed with the Wii Miis though. Especially when it’s my Mii that looks the creepiest in Go Vacation. Oh god, that empty stare…

        In retrospect, the Mii Channel could have taken some pages out of, say, Fishing Resort‘s character creation system. The interfaces are almost identical already, so some more options to choose from, and we could have gotten an avatar system that looks more pleasant. But then again, the Western game market’s general stance (particularly in this generation) regarding Anime/Manga looks is that they aren’t popular or don’t sell well, so… [Shrug]

        • aoihana

          Oh I see, I knew you didn’t have a 3DS, but I thought you might have tried a demo unit. 

          I know what you mean! On the Wii, my Mii is more like (◕_◕ )

          While on my 3DS it’s more like (◕‿◕✿)

          It just feels incomplete! (*≧m≦*)

          • http://myfigurecollection.net/collection/DrakosAmatras DrakosAmatras

            Demo unit? Oh, you mean the ones chained to small panels in game stores, with tons of fingerprints and sebum all over? …No, thanks; my curiosity can wait.

  • theworldofnoboundries

    More Miku is always the best ^^. …….. But…… taking photo of Miku with my Mii……. WILL MAKE MY MII LOOKS LIKE RETARD T_T. especially my Mii is taken after scanning my face directly.

  • neetyneety

    All those moonrunes covering my adorable Miku-sama…. I don’t think I like that feature anymore.

    AR looks incredible though: seeing Miku (and potentially the other Vocaloids too) dance around on my desk will make my life complete.

    For Hijiri sake, since it is just an AR, could they at least slap some Anti-aliasing on those model?

  • Bio_liquid

    JAPAN!

    Y U NO LOCALIZE?!?!

  • icecoffemix

    …I think I’d die early if I have this game.
