Joint developer’s profile
—HOMESTAR Series—
The HOMESTAR Series was developed jointly with Takayuki Ohira, creator of the
“MEGASTAR-II-Cosmos” recognized by Guinness World Records as the world’s most advanced
planetarium. With it, you can enjoy a highly realistic star-filled sky in your own home. The night
sky nowadays is increasingly bright especially in large cities due to reasons such as overuse of
neon signs and night lighting, creating “light pollution” that makes stars difficult to view.
The HOMESTAR Series was developed in the hope that as many people as possible will be able
to easily enjoy at home the beauty of starry skies that are becoming rare.
This product was developed with the intention that it be used to easily enjoy a star-filled sky at
home. For that reason, it is not equipped with a planet projection function normally seen in
commercial planetariums. If the HOMESTAR Series stimulates your interest in stars and
astronomy, we encourage you to visit your local planetarium and go out to see a real star-filled
sky for a truly wonderful experience.
For your safety
Guinness-recognized
planetarium creator
Takayuki Ohira
Takayuki Ohira started building planetariums on his own in elementary school, and he
successfully developed a planetarium lens projector while still as student—something
never before accomplished by an amateur. In 1998, Ohira unveiled the
“MEGASTAR”, which was able to project 1.7 million stars—more than 100 times
greater than that of any previous planetarium projector. His “MEGASTAR-II-Cosmos”
was registered in the Guinness World Records 2004, and he established Ohira Tech Ltd. in 2005. Ohira has
even appeared in a TV commercial for Nescafe coffee. In addition to setting up “MEGASTAR” projectors
around Japan, he also blazed new trails for planetariums by collaborating with large-scale events at Expo 2005
Aichi and a major art gallery in Tokyo as well with major performing artists. The world’s first optical home
planetarium, the HOMESTAR, Ohira jointly developed with Sega Toys, has proved to be a major hit with more
than 550,000 sold worldwide as of March 2012.

<Notes on Use>
《Be careful of the following, as they may lead to accidents.》
★Before playing with this product, be sure to read the cautions above and the instructions. Keep the package for future reference.
★Make the room as dark as possible when projecting to better enjoy the projected images. It usually takes about 5 minutes for your eyes to adjust to the dark
(time may vary), so stars may not be visible clearly right after starting to project. Stars will become clear after a while, so please wait for your eyes to adjust
to the dark.
★Projecting to a white or other brightly colored ceiling with no irregularities will result better projection results.
★Optimal projection distance is about 2 to 2.3 meters. Sufficient projection results may not be gained at large distances. (HOMESTAR projector)
★Cease use immediately if you feel ill from viewing projected images. Continuing to view may lead to accidents or a sick feeling.
