"PlayStation and Science" Exhibition - The fusion of computer technology and entertainment -

"PlayStation," which has a dominant share in the world as a household entertainment platform, has further developed the TV game into "computer entertainment." It has now become one of the major forms of entertainment and is on par with movies and music that are enjoyed by people all over the world.

Through "PlayStation," created in December 1994, and the current "PlayStation2," this exhibition exhibits the relationship of cutting-edge computer technology and science and technology, which is its base, to a wide range of ages in an understandable way. Visitors can come into contact with the world of computer entertainment through the mechanism behind how computer games are projected on a TV screen and the role of the semiconductor chip that actualizes it through the ideas of its developers.
