You can project images onto the mapping board in the shape of a castle and enjoy beautiful projection mapping images of Disney in 3D. Projection mapping images that come equipped are 13 original works by Disney which are only available to be seen with this product (projection field of roughly 80 cm × 80 cm), and video production was handled by NAKED, INC., which produced "FLOWERS BY NAKED" and "TOKYO ART CITY BY NAKED" etc.

Also, in addition to (1) projection mapping, other features include (2) games and intellectual training, (3) bedtime movies and (4) projection of photos and videos, for a total of four main functionalities (total of 51 types of contents).

"Games and intellectual training" includes games like the crane game and pinball game, as well as exercises like filling in letters and comparing numbers. Using the controller, everyone can participate and have fun, not just watching. Also, with "bedtime movies", you can enjoy music and Disney videos suitable for bedtime, which can be used for the daily routine of putting kids to sleep. In addition, "projection of photos and videos" allows you to project photos and videos taken on your smartphone edited with a special app for "Wonder View Theater" on walls or ceilings.

TOMY Company, Ltd. has been selling the "Good Night Home Theater" series of projectors which project slowly moving images with relaxing music to help babies fall asleep since its release in 1996. (*1) It has been a long-selling product with cumulative shipments of 1.2 million units since its release (as of September 2020). This time, we have developed this product under the new theme of projection mapping based on user feedback, not only for putting kids to sleep but also for parents to enjoy bedtime together with their kids even after infancy.

Outdoor projection mapping events that have gained popularity in recent years can be enjoyed at home, and additionally, this product has an enhanced functionality to allow the whole family to enjoy games and projecting photos and videos taken on their own smartphones. This is a newly positioned product with which everyone in the family can enjoy spending time together at home. Along with special videos than can only be seen with this product, we are delivering time together and exciting experience for parents and their kids not available anywhere else.

With the four main functionalities of projection mapping, games and intellectual training, bedtime movies and projection of photos and videos, families can enjoy it for a long time as kids grow up.
