## About

Based in Kyoto, Japan, and established in 2014, Atmoph Inc. manufactures and distributes digital windows. It also operates an e-commerce platform to distribute the products. The store also sells accessory products such as the remote control, the camera module that features face tracking to make the window view more realistic, or the LED Light Module which can make the user feel the sunlight shining through the window and grow plants indoors. 
Co-founder Kang lived alone in a Los Angeles apartment in 2004. Although it was a fun life, he became stressed by the unfamiliar language, daily study in a new place, and research in the lab. At one point, the room felt very closed. He could only see the apartment in front from the window, and there was no sense of openness. So he used the desktop of my computer as a picture of a tropical beach and played a landscape DVD on the TV, but all of them were different. For the next 10 years, when he was thinking about ideas to solve the blockage, he finally found one answer. "The scenery of the house cannot be changed. we should be able to change it somehow." In 2014, Atmoph was established in Kyoto. 
The basic unit costs less than 50,000 yen, while a 3-screen set costs a little over 150,000 yen. Digital windows can be rented at 4,800 yen.
