International toy exhibition in Tokyo attracts many visitors

Updated:8 years ago

Tokyo (Japan), June 28 (ANI): This year marks the fifty-seventh edition of this annual International Tokyo Toy Show, where Japanese manufacturers, as well as foreign makers, are introducing about 35,000 new toys, including latest technology toys and educational toys. At every booth, a lot of children are gathering to see, touch, and enjoy toy demonstrations. The exhibition also includes many stage shows to experience the fun of toys. This year, the most watched toys are using "speech recognition" technology by AI (Artificial intelligence). With the release of smart speakers since last year, the wave of voice recognition and voice manipulation is pouring into the toy world. "Chatting toys" that communicate with speakers are very popular here. This is a toy introducing Japan’s national sport “Sumo”. Place the sumo paper wrestler dolls on the ring. Then the battle starts with a shaking mechanism that is produced by the voice of players. The wrestler puppet that remains on the stand without falling will be the winner. The old version of this toy used shaking the ring by tapping it by hand. This is a puzzle toy for young children. It can be used safely with soft material. It is intended for parents and children to enjoy together. With the effects of declining birthrate, toy makers in Japan are making more efforts to face the shrinking market. One of the steps taken to do so is stimulating demand for toys that three generations of children, parents, and grandparents can enjoy playing together. These innovative Japanese toys continue to give dreams to every generation.
