The Virtual Asukakyo project intends to restore Asuka-Kyo to its original state by using Mixed Reality technology.

The technical feature of this project to reconstruct the lost buildings of Asuka-Kyo with CG and synthesize them with the real landscape of Asuka village: real-time shadowing. The artists created the shadows of the virtual objects in a fast and efficient way by using a set of pre-rendered basis images and shadowing planes, in order to express soft shadows of virtual objects in the synthesized images.
