The avatar drew inspiration from a map pin symbolising the global convergence of individuals, even during the challenges of Covid-19. The pin represents people gathering virtually while also expressing their identities.

The World Robot Summit 2020, originally scheduled for 2020 but postponed and held online due to Covid-19, featured my role as the art director for the virtual event. In addition to crafting the mascot also used as an online avatar, developing the concept for the virtual park, and designing games, I also played a crucial role in designing the UI/UX platform for both the online page and virtual world.
Despite time constraints, challenges in maintaining low polygon counts, and the potential for event cancellation, I designed game tasks, stories, visuals, and the interface for a futuristic virtual theme park. The space featured robot-shaped buildings, serving as a metaphor to guide users. Participants could explore, collect stamps, complete challenges, watch movies, attend online seminars, and build virtual robots.
