Business Activities

  • Mobile

    Mobile

    We handle software development across all layers, including drivers, middleware, applications, and various devices for smartphones. We cover all aspects of software development from developing cloud applications to providing services utilizing mobile devices,
    Additionally, we have been involved in the verification and evaluation of Sharp mobile phones and smartphones for many years. The expertise accumulated through the verification of diverse communication protocols is our significant strength.
    Leveraging the expertise gained from our mobile development experience, we aim to advance into new areas such as 5G and AI through collaboration within the NTT DATA Group and partnerships with various carriers.

  • Auto Motive

    Auto Motive

    Automotives, as everyday fixtures, incorporate numerous functions, now evolving into assemblies of multiple computers within a single vehicle.
    Hence, software development is indispensable for controlling automotives, and the quality of a vehicle is determined by the quality of the software it incorporates.
    Moreover, software development for automotives necessitates a sense of 'reliability and safety' as it involves the responsibility of safeguarding human lives.
    We aim to provide drivers with comfort, enjoyment, and convenience and contributing to the resolution of societal challenges by achieving such stringent requirements, and by integrating information obtained in real-time from software embedded in automotives with various services.

  • CPS

    CPS

    CPS (Cyber-Physical System) is a system that integrates the information from the physical space into the digital realm through computer analysis, feeding back the analysis results to the physical space to derive optimal outcomes.It connects the physical and digital realms to achieve the best results. The applications of CPS are diverse, ranging from predicting component failures in factories to tracking the estrus period of pigs in pig farms, providing optimal transportation means, and detecting excess power consumption.
    We leverage our extensive sensing technology and analytical capabilities cultivated since our establishment to provide solutions tailored to our customers' challenges. Additionally, by using CPS to link the physical and digital spaces, we aim to realize a prosperous life and sustainable society.

  • 5G

    5G

    5G (Fifth Generation Mobile Communication System) is a communication technology that enables 'enhanced Mobile Broadband' 'Ultra-Reliable and Low Latency Communications' and 'massive-Machine Type Communication'.
    Its capability to transmit massive amounts of data at high speeds drives its utilization in fields such as autonomous driving, remote surgery, and remote work assistance, where precision and real-time communication are crucial.
    Furthermore, the future holds the advent of 6G, expanding communication environments not only on the ground but also into the skies and space.
    Drawing from our extensive expertise in information and communication technology developed over many years, we are dedicated to supporting the implementation and utilization of these next-generation communication systems. Additionally, we are focusing on fostering new businesses by integrating technologies like xR (extended reality) with these advancements.

  • xR

    xR

    xR is an innovative technology that is poised to change our future. It possesses the power to expand worlds that were previously unseen in the physical realm.
    Virtual Reality (VR) experiences akin to entering a dream world become possible. It expands into realms not present in reality, allowing individuals to transport themselves to their preferred locations. While often associated with gaming, it's advancing into services predicting congestion by simulating human flows on digital twins, preemptively averting disasters and accidents.
    Augmented Reality (AR) involves augmenting digital information onto the real world. By reducing the time and effort required for activities like trying on rings or simulating clothing, it enhances customer satisfaction.
    Mixed Reality (MR) achieves the fusion of reality and virtuality. It provides assistance in tasks requiring knowledge through devices, resolving manpower shortages.
    Our mission is to complement the real and the virtual, expand human capabilities, and discover new possibilities. We aim to connect people and the virtual world through xR, striving toward a sustainable new society.
