Section 2
OriHime was created by Yoshifuji Kentaro. The idea for OriHime/came from his own experience.
When Yoshifuji was young,/he was not able to go to school/for three and a half years. He wanted to attend classes,/but he could not. He was extremely lonely. He thought,/“If I had an avatar,/I could be with my classmates/without going to school.” During this period,/he became interested in designing robots.
Yoshifuji entered an engineering high school. When he was 18,/he took part in an engineering contest/in the US. He met various people there/and found his goal:/to help people/who cannot communicate with others easily. That is/why he calls himself/a “robot communicator”,/not a “robot engineer.”
