The Picture You Drew Comes to Life in a 3D World! Next-Generation Workshop Held at DX Educational Facility "Hero Egg"

Meta Heroes Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Osaka City, Osaka Prefecture, Representative Director: Kazutoshi Matsuishi, hereinafter "the Company") held a workshop titled "Let's Make Your Own 3D Character!" for elementary and junior high school students at the DX educational facility "Hero Egg" inside Namba Parks, Osaka, on Sunday, March 29, 2026.

This event is an experiential program that breathes life into 2D characters drawn by children by making them 3D using the latest technology. Following the great success of the first session, we are pleased to announce that we have started accepting general participation reservations for the next session to be held on Saturday, April 18.

On Sunday, March 29, a workshop was held by our creative director, "Navi." The participating children drew their own original characters on blank white paper. Those "still images" were transferred to a digital space using the latest 3D modeling technology, and they experienced making them actually walk and strike poses. It was a passionate event where they experienced not only "using" digital technology but also the joy of "creating" with it.

Social Background

From "Consuming Digital" to "Creating Digital." What Education Do Children Need Now?

In the Society 5.0 era, where AI and the metaverse permeate everyday life, digital tools are evolving from mere entertainment into a means of self-expression. However, many children remain on the side of "consuming" games and videos, and opportunities to experience professional-level technology are limited. In addition, the disparity in educational opportunities due to home environments is a major issue. We believe that an environment is needed where anyone can make cutting-edge technology "their own weapon" without facing economic constraints.

"Hero Egg," operated by our company, was born as a place where anyone can learn the technology to pioneer the future, regardless of economic constraints. This workshop aims to give children the confidence that "they have the power to create the future" by shaping their free imagination with the latest technology. Due to popular demand, we will hold the second workshop next time on Saturday, April 18.

We hope that those who were unable to participate this time will also experience this excitement.
