Amemil is an application that uses augmented reality (AR) and artificial intelligence (AI) to represent real-time rainfall information.
The AI tells you when strong rain clouds are approaching, and you can check them as realistic images through the camera.

* Main functions and features
- Amemil has three modes: "2D" for map display, "3D" for AR display, and "Satellite Eye" for a birds eye view of the weather from above.
- Rainfall information is a composite of JMA radar data, with a resolution of 250m mesh, and is updated every 5 minutes.
- Rainfall notification is a push notification with voice (Saori Onishi and Ari Ozawa) and radar video when rainfall is expected at registered points or at the current location within one hour.
- In 2D mode, rainfall and lightning information is displayed in 13 shades, superimposed on the current location marker and map.
- The AI learns from meteorologists explanations and provides information on temperature and rainfall conditions in the users vicinity, as well as forecasts for the future.
- In 3D mode, rainfall information for a 10km radius is combined with the camera image as an animation of rain clouds, rain, and ripples in puddles. You can read the amount of rainfall by indicating the target direction. It can also play the sound of rain according to the intensity of the rain.
- The "Satellite Eye" function allows you to view rainfall conditions across Japan, and by moving your iPhone, you can experience a realistic image as if you were looking at it from a satellite.
- There is a demo mode that recreates heavy rainfall that has led to disasters in the past.
- If you register as a member for 0.99 US dollars per month, you can use the rainfall forecast for the next 15 hours and GPS tracking mode.
