More like graphic arts: Let's stop walking while watching our smartphone says the message -and shows the picture if you watch it carefully. In Japanese the word is "aruki-sumaho"   (歩きスマホ) with "aruki" meaning "walking" and "sumaho", "smartphone". At a station platform where aruki-sumaho can be particularly problematic for obvious reasons.
