-A first in the Tokai area! "T Ticket" turns your T Card into a ticket-

Tokai Television Broadcasting Corporation (Head office: Nagoya City, Aichi Prefecture; President and CEO: Uchida Masaru; hereinafter referred to as "Tokai Television") and Culture Convenience Club Co., Ltd. (Head office: Shibuya Ward, Tokyo; President and CEO: Masuda Muneaki; hereinafter referred to as "CCC") are pleased to announce that they have decided to introduce "T Ticket" provided by CCC at the "AR Art Museum," an art exhibition hosted by Tokai Television from March 27 to May 10, 2015.

"T Ticket" is a new ticket service that allows customers with T Cards to purchase tickets and then enter events, live shows, etc. using their T Card, which they have registered following the specified procedures. The introduction of "T Ticket" at the "AR Art Museum" will be the first of its kind in the Tokai area.

If you have a T-Card, you can purchase advance tickets on the T-Ticket purchasing site from your computer, smartphone, or tablet, and present the T-Card you registered at the time of purchase at the time of entry. Your T-Card will then serve as your ticket for entry.

Advance tickets for the AR Art Museum sold by T-Ticket are valid for admission on all days of the exhibition. In addition, customers who purchase tickets for a specified date and time and attend on the specified date will receive 10 T Points as admission points. In addition, T Ticket advance tickets are a great value ticket that can be purchased at the advance ticket price until May 9th, the day before the final day of the event.

In the Tokai area (Aichi, Gifu, and Mie prefectures), there are over 2 million T-members who use T-cards, and Tokai Television and T-Point Japan will use this "T-Ticket" service to encourage T-members in the Tokai area to visit the "AR Art Museum."

Overview of the "AR Art Museum"

This exhibition allows visitors to view paintings on panels and cubes by holding a special mobile device over them. The exhibition uses AR (augmented reality) technology to allow visitors to see another "reality."
AR is an abbreviation for Augmented Reality, a technology that adds electronic information to real-world scenes. At this exhibition, visitors can view the artworks using a mobile device with the app "ARART" installed. When you look at a painting through a mobile device, part or all of it changes, and things depicted in the painting begin to move or hidden things become visible. For example, water starts flowing from a dried-up waterfall and skeletons start dancing. Or snow falls, a sailing ship sets sail, and famous paintings that everyone knows change shape. At the venue, mobile devices with a dedicated app installed will be loaned out free of charge so that visitors can view the artworks.
