-- Tokyo, February 21, 2024 KDDI is pleased to announce that it will collaborate with Kyoto Purple Sanga Co., Ltd. to hold a demonstration test during the match between Kyoto Sanga F.C. and Shonan Bellmare on March 2, 2024 for Meiji Yasuda J1 League MW 2 (Sanga Stadium by Kyocera). This test will focus on the fan engagement service AR Support Challenge Beta that allows fans to enjoy a smartphone game in the stadium using AR technology while supporting the team with gifts. The purpose of this test is to ascertain the level of demand for the concept of this service.
Before the test, KDDI will exhibit the service at a hands-on demo booth from February 26 to 29, 2024 at MWC Barcelona 2024, the worlds largest mobile technology exhibition and conference, to be held in Spain.

About the service 1. Background and purpose In recent years, there has been an influx of attention within the entertainment and sports industries toward services that allow people to support their favorite pop stars, artists, sports teams, athletes, and other notable individuals by giving them various gifts through smartphone apps.
The aim of the AR Support Challenge is to build a model in which fans and supporters of players and clubs can have fun with a smartphone game using AR technology while giving gifts, thereby helping to bolster teams and local communities.
2. Service model On match days, fans in the stadium seats use the app for this service to purchase gifts and give gifts to the team of their choice before the match, at half-time, or in their own free time. This act of giving gifts is accompanied by a fun game with AR elements and the gifts can help bolster the team and contribute to local communities. In return for their gifts, fans can receive merchandise, exclusive digital content, and other rewards based around their favorite players.
This is a conceptual representation of the service, and may differ from the actual experience.
About the test People visiting the venue can experience this service free of charge. People in the stadium can point their smartphones at the pitch from their seats to take part in a game for supporting players while enjoying AR elements. Participants are divided into teams and compete in a goal-scoring game.
