The Japanese dream of having an idol hand-feed you tasty sweets is coming to two lucky fans. Oh Japan. With a culture bursting at the seams with some of the worlds most confusing and bizarre foods, media, technology and habits, it can at times feel like you’re almost trying to be the strangest country on the planet. Unsurprisingly, this same passion has translated fully to VR, resulting in just a whole bunch of brilliant Japanese VR experiences.

With 75% of the adult population seeing 20/20 thanks to glasses, contacts, or just awesome genetics, it’s easy to see why good vision is taken for granted.

To avoid awkward and sometimes disastrous learning content, instructional designers must use authentic translation in the right context to get optimal results. For example, even a simple phrase like “got milk” translates to “are you lactating” in Mexico. Can you imagine what a straight translation might do to your course? With over 317 million people in the US and over 6.7 billion potential customers in the world, personalizing training seems logical.
