Kibiro Kabuki ver

A one-of-a-kind AI robot that weaves values carried on from old.

Kibiro is an AI-equipped product robot from FRONTEO, a data-analysis company that supports big-data analysis with its proprietary AI engine "KIBIT." It learns users' interests and preferences from text information obtained through conversation and chat via a dedicated smartphone application, and by connecting over a cloud network to "KIBIT," FRONTEO's proprietary AI, it provides users with recommended information.

KiQ handled the art direction of the kabuki version that combines this Kibiro with Japanese culture. It was supervised by Ichikawa Somegoro VII (as of 2017) and tied to his book "Chouyaku-teki Kabuki."
