富士通とカーネギーメロン大学、社会や経済における課題を解決するソーシャルデジタルツインの共同研究を開始

TOKYO, Feb 8, 2022 - (JCN Newswire) - 富士通株式会社(注1)(以下、富士通)とCarnegie Mellon University(注2)(以下、カーネギーメロン大学)は、このたび、スマートシティーの実現に向けて、行動経済学や行動科学といった人文社会科学と計算機科学を融合したコンバージングテクノロジー(注3)により、人々の動きを高精度に予測してデジタルに再現するとともに、人々の行動特性に基づく未来の行動や起こり得るリスクを可視化し、多様な施策の立案を支援するソーシャルデジタルツイン(注4)の共同研究を2022年2月より開始します。

両者がスマートシティーの重要テーマとして掲げる都市交通や環境、経済などの分野における様々な施策実施にあたり、人々の行動をソーシャルデジタルツインで事前検証し、施策の効果や潜在的なリスクを事前に把握することで、各施策の効果を最大化できます。加えて、実世界の人々の動きや移動手段の変化などのリアルタイムデータをソーシャルデジタルツインへ取り込むことで、施策の改善や人々の行動変容を促すことが可能になります。

共同研究技術の社会実装に向けては、交通規制や車両移動状況などの実データを用いて、動的に人流の発着地を推定して交通量の管理や調整を行うことで、CO2排出などの環境問題や経済効率などの都市問題を解決するための施策の有効性を検証していきます。これにより、都市における人々の動きに関するソーシャルデジタルツインの基盤技術の構築および確立を目指します。

共同研究の概要

本共同研究では、ソーシャルデジタルツインの基盤となる技術の研究開発に取り組み、人や物、経済、社会の相互作用をデジタルに再現し、それらの実態を把握することで、多様で複雑化する様々な課題の解決に向けた施策立案などを支援します。

例えば、2次元情報から3次元情報を推定するニューラルレンダリング技術を用いて、カメラ映像から設置角度や障害物との重なりにより部分的に見えない人の動きを仮想的に生成し、的確に捉える高度なセンシング技術や、好みや状況により変化する人々の行動特性に関する行動科学や行動経済学の知見とAIを融合した行動予測技術を開発します。また、人々の行動と物や経済、社会との関係性を実世界の変化に追従してデジタルに再現するためのヒューマンモデルとソーシャルモデルを構築し、ソーシャルデジタルツイン上で各種施策の事前検証を進めます。これにより、多様で複雑な社会課題を解決する有効な施策を効率良く導き、将来的には、施策目標達成に向けた人々の行動変容を促す働きかけを可能にするなど、ソーシャルデジタルツインと実社会がより良い社会の実現に向けてともに進化する世界を創り出します。

これらの開発技術を、環境、交通渋滞、経済効率などの都市問題の解決に向けた実証実験に適用し、その効果検証を行います。例えば、ソーシャルデジタルツイン上で、都市の道路網における交通量の実データを活用し、日々変化する交通需要を動的に把握できるモデルを構築し、交通量にあわせた車両規制や通行料を変動させるロードプライシングなどを事前検証することで、都市交通の施策の有効性を検証します。

今後の展望

富士通とカーネギーメロン大学は、ソーシャルデジタルツインを活用した交通渋滞や経済効率の検証だけではなく、CO2排出量の削減などの環境問題の解決と都市交通の利便性を向上させるきめ細かな施策などの検証を進めていくとともに、今後も継続する可能性のある新型コロナウイルス感染症などのパンデミック抑止と経済成長を両立させる施策の実施や、状況に応じた医療資源の最適配分により人々の安全・安心な暮らしを守るサステナブルな次世代のスマートシティーの実現を支援していきます。

福岡市とトヨタ、CJPTが、水素社会のまちづくり実現に向けた幅広い取り組みに関する連携協定を締結

Toyota City, Japan, Feb 7, 2022 - (JCN Newswire) - 福岡市(市長 : 髙島 宗一郎)とトヨタ自動車株式会社(以下トヨタ、本社 : 愛知県豊田市、代表取締役社長 : 豊田 章男)は、水素社会の早期実現に向け、商用事業での協業に取り組むCommercial Japan Partnership Technologies株式会社(以下CJPT、本社 : 東京都文京区、代表取締役社長 : 中嶋 裕樹)と共同で、相互に連携した幅広い取り組みを推進していくことに合意し、その第一歩として燃料電池車両の導入に向けた検討を開始しました。

福岡市は、早くから水素エネルギーに着目し、市民の生活排水(下水)から水素を製造し燃料電池自動車に供給する世界初の取り組みを開始するとともに、燃料電池技術を用いたトラックやバイクなどの実証実験に日本で初めてチャレンジするなど「水素リーダー都市プロジェクト」を進めてきました。

トヨタは、カーボンニュートラルの実現に向けた取り組みの中で、水素に関しては、将来の有力なエネルギーとの認識のもと、燃料電池自動車「MIRAI」の販売、水素エンジン車の開発、CJPTとの連携による商用車の普及など水素社会の実現を目指して、お客様の選択肢を広げる取り組みとともに業界の枠を超えた幅広い仲間づくりを進めています。

このような中、福岡市とトヨタは、市民のライフスタイルの中で身近に感じ持続可能で実践的な水素利用を広げることについて協議を重ねるとともに、2021年11月のスーパー耐久レースでは、水素エンジン車両のレース用燃料として、福岡市民の生活排水から製造された水素を供給・使用し、水素を通じて初めての連携をいたしました。

そしてこのたび、今後の社会インフラを担う車両の開発・実装や物流における水素社会モデルづくり、市民に身近な施設やイベント等での水素エネルギーの活用、水素社会の実現のために必要な規制の適正化の検討などについて双方で合意に至り、連携協定を締結することになりました。そして、具体的な取り組みの第一歩として、福岡市への給食配送車やパッカー車(ゴミ収集車)として燃料電池トラック、移動式発電・給電システム(Moving e)の導入の検討を開始しました。

今回の連携協定締結を契機に、今後、福岡市とトヨタ、CJPTは、水素を「つくる」「はこぶ」「つかう」という一連のサプライチェーンに関する技術開発や実証を行い、早期の社会実装に繋げることで市民が水素を身近に感じられる社会をいち早く構築するとともに、日本及び世界のカーボンニュートラル実現に貢献するために、積極的に取り組んで参ります。

NEC、赤外線カメラ搭載のスマートマスクなどを活用した消防向け現場活動支援ソリューションを開発

TOKYO, Feb 7, 2022 - (JCN Newswire) - NECは、暗闇や濃煙下などの視界不良時やGPSの届かない屋内における、迅速かつ安全な消防活動を実現する「現場活動支援ソリューション」を開発しました。

本ソリューションは、赤外線カメラを搭載し暗闇でも要救助者の検索活動を支援するスマートマスクや、GPSが届かない屋内で消防隊員の位置情報をリアルタイムに確認できる屋内位置測位システム、指揮支援機能を搭載したタブレット端末や電子指揮盤によって現場の消防隊員間や指令センターなどとの情報共有・指揮伝達を支援する指揮支援システムから構成されます。

NECは今年度から電子指揮盤と連携した指揮支援システムの提供を開始しており、2023年度までにはスマートマスクと屋内位置測位システムを実用化し、全国の消防への展開を目指していきます。さらに各システム間のデータ連携強化を進め、消防活動のより一層の迅速化・効率化に貢献していきます。

消防の現場活動は要救助者の救出や消火活動など、一刻を争う対応が必要です。こうした中、迅速かつ効率的な現場活動を実現するために、現場活動機材の高度化、情報連携の強化が求められています。また同時に、危険と隣り合わせで活動する消防隊員の安全を確保する必要があります。

NECは、これまで消防指令システムの開発・構築を通じ、指令管制の高度化や効率化に貢献してきました。今回、先進技術を活用した現場活動支援ソリューションによって、消防の現場活動の迅速化と効率化、更に消防隊員の安全性向上に貢献していきます。

現場活動支援ソリューションの概要

1. スマートマスク

火災現場などで消防隊員が着装する空気呼吸器の面体に、ヘッドマウントディスプレイと赤外線カメラ・可視光カメラを搭載し、赤外線カメラ映像により暗闇や濃煙下での活動や要救助者の検索活動を支援します。また、現場隊長や指揮本部との無線技術によるネットワーク化により、リアルタイムな情報共有ができます。

消防隊員の活動時の視界を妨げないよう透過型のヘッドマウントディスプレイを採用し、赤外線カメラ映像に加えて空気ボンベの残圧、現場隊長のタブレット端末から送られる様々な指示情報などが投影できます。このような面体用に専用設計されたフルカラー表示のヘッドマウントディスプレイを内蔵し、外部と双方向の情報伝達を実現する仕組みは世界初(注1)となります。

なお、本スマートマスクは、エア・ウォーター防災株式会社(注2)、株式会社重松製作所(注3)と共同開発しました。また、本開発は総務省消防庁の「消防防災科学技術研究推進制度」における令和元年度・2年度採択の委託研究(代表研究機関:一般財団法人日本消防設備安全センター(注4))として実施したものです。

2. 屋内位置測位システム

GPSが届かない屋内で、予め設置された位置情報を取得するためのインフラを必要とせずに、モバイルビーコンを装着した消防隊員の位置情報を確認できる屋内位置測位システムです。現場到着時にアンカービーコンを設置することで、複数の消防隊員の現在位置がリアルタイムにタブレット端末に表示され、活動状況の把握が可能となります。

本システムは、NEC北米研究所が開発したUWB(Ultra Wide Band、注5)を用いた屋内位置測位の特許技術である「TrackIO」を活用しています。またNECの子会社で新事業の創出を推進するNEC X, Inc(注6)とNEC北米研究所が、本システムの実証実験を北米の消防機関で進めています。

3. 指揮支援システム

指揮支援機能を搭載したタブレット端末や電子指揮盤によって、現場の消防隊員間や指令センターとの情報共有・指揮伝達を支援するシステムです。2017年から複数の消防で導入実績のある指揮支援システムのノウハウを活かし、今回、指揮支援タブレット端末と電子指揮盤との情報連携を実現する新たな指揮支援システムを開発しました。

指揮支援タブレット端末は、現場の消防隊員や現場隊長、指揮本部、指令センター間を相互かつリアルタイムに情報共有することができます。

電子指揮盤は、これまで紙や無線通信などで行っていた火災現場や救助等における指揮本部の運用をデジタル化し、防水仕様により雨天でも使用可能です。電子指揮盤は、株式会社リコー(注7)のRICOH eWhiteboard 4200(大型電子ペーパー)を活用しています。

なお、新たな指揮支援システムは今年度から提供を開始しています。

本ソリューションは、「NEC Safer Cities」(注8)実現に向けて、消防現場のデジタルトランスフォーメーション(DX)を加速・強化するものであり、安全・安心・公平・効率な社会の実現に貢献していきます。

The CEO of BruntWork is Riding the Remote Work Wave

NEW YORK, NY, Feb 4, 2022 - (ACN Newswire) - Staff in fast-growing regions of the world such as the Philippines and in South America are earning more working from home for international companies than they could ever earn on-shore. And the rules for work have changed for good.


At the dawn of the post-pandemic era, office workers have woken up, stretched their limbs and shrugged off the remnants of painful memories "Traffic jams, long commutes on crowded buses and trains, unhealthy and expensive lunches in the city CBD" recalls Winston Ong, CEO of leading global outsourcing company BruntWork, about his usual workweek prior to Covid19. "For someone who requires focus to be productive, being accosted by co-workers in an open plan office was a particularly painful experience."

Ong is a self-confessed "home worker". With decades of experience in digital marketing, his tasks consisted of work that he could always accomplish from any location with an Internet connection and a phone. And in recent times, all the companies he worked for had a portion of workers located overseas as employers realized the considerable talent pools available in countries like the Philippines (where wages are significantly less than first world countries like the USA or Canada).

Over 100 hundred million employees are working from home and many will never go back.

Employers are scrambling to figure out what that means for their balance sheets, office leases, fit-outs and corporate culture. And many savvy business owners are seeing the opportunity to cut costs by relocating back-office roles to cheaper international jurisdictions.

Since the pandemic, Ong saw a future where companies simply did not offer workers an office to go to, which begged the question "what comes next" for businesses that sell products and services online in an increasingly globalized world.

"The world is changing. We are at a turning point where the technology is ready, employers are ready, customers are ready and staff are more than ready to redefine the interaction between life and employment. For some time my partner and I had been planning extended trips living overseas, and I realized the best way to help people live their perfect life was to lead a company revolutionizing remote work in the post-pandemic world."

At the dawn of the new era of work from home, managers and entrepreneurs are waking up to an amazing realization. Jobs that were reserved for office workers can actually be done better from home and there is no longer any requirement to hire locally.

Indeed companies can hire nationally, or indeed internationally to find the best candidates for a particular role, no matter the location. And in the process, companies can dramatically increase productivity and most importantly, profitability. Ong suggests that the average company can cut 70% out of their labor bill by moving to remote first, and hiring from international labor pools such as the Philippines.

The chance that many workers are ever willing to commute on a regular basis again in the future is zero. It's too inefficient. And while workers and employers are somewhat split on where they stand on the question of remote toil, the COVID-19 pandemic has permanently shaken up the working world; no society is going back to the pre-COVID normal.

To support what could be droves of workers sticking to distance-labor instead of returning to offices, BruntWork recorded revenue growth in excess of 700% during the pandemic and provides a solution to quickly get remote workers embedded in any company as quickly as possible.

"I knew we were onto a winner when our business model morphed from SMEs looking for one or two virtual assistants to listed companies looking to outsource entire sections of their operations. The growth has been simply explosive."

What's ahead for BruntWork? Per its CEO, the company would like to grow its staff by five-fold this year. And unsurprisingly, BruntWork intends to hew to its remote roots, meaning that it won't be looking for workers in a single geographic region. The staff it intends to hire for companies will be in Asia, Latin America and Eastern Europe. The company will also build out more enterprise-friendly features allowing it to target larger customers.

About Bruntwork

Bruntwork is an outsourcing company that is an expert at building cost-effective, efficient and scalable operational teams for businesses wanting to grow fast and effectively.

Shaktiio Announces Its Breakthrough ICO on 1 March 2022

Pune, India, Feb 2, 2022 - (ACN Newswire) - Shaktiio is a pioneering endeavor that intends to develop an anti-liquidation protocol that assures that cryptocurrencies used as collateral are not sold and forcedly liquidated if their value falls below certain limits or the amount of debt owed. Its debut is closely approaching, as the ICO is set to take place on 1 March 2022.

Overall, the SKTO token will have a fixed supply of 1 billion tokens, with an initial supply of 560 million tokens accessible during the token sale, assuming a minimum aim of $100 million being reached. Initially, 1 ETH will be equivalent to 22,222 SKTO. If the plan goes accordingly, there will be a 1 million token distribution for ICO investors in the aftermath of the ICO event. Out of the remaining token supply, 340 million will be locked for 3 years, being also eligible for any eventual burns. Lastly, the remaining 100 million will be utilized for promotions and claims reserve.

Most importantly, an ETH reserve will be set up to ensure that all tokens sold during the ICO are secure. The protection of ICO investors comes first, as any investment is assured by a 100 % buyback endeavor which guarantees that any investment can be received in the amount of ETH they invested. Essentially, they want to reserve the ETH fund as a guarantee to their customers' lending platforms, aiming to utilize the fund's interest portion to support the project's development. Although claiming ETH is not immediately accessible, they are prepared to collect votes for the next stage. Furthermore, after three years, investors are eligible for an ETH claim. In the event that their token does not appreciate as projected above ETH proportionately in three years, they will have the alternative of refunding their ICO investors in ETH, alongside with the acquitted fewer transaction costs that they have already paid.

The team at Shaktiio's has vast expertise in the financial industry, and they are fully acquainted with the scope and nature of the issue. This team will do all in its power to put the Anti-liquidation Protocol into effect since they are certain that the financial market needs this solution.

Because security is of the utmost importance to Shaktiio, the system will gather customers' unique identity data to prevent fraudulent claims. Moreover, the system will only allow BTC, ETH, XRP, and NEXO tokens to be leveraged as collaterals. At the time of enrolment, the LTV quantum will be less than 50%, and there will be one time 30 days premium on collection. Aside from that, there will be 5 days of free coverage after in-force protection.

Check out Shaktiio's website to stay up to date with the latest development and embark on this unique project's journey.

This also includes published digital assets acquired through legal deposit or purchase (where these items are not suitable for inclusion on the National E-Deposit System).

Public access to the Tasmanian Archives collections includes government records, private records, and cultural heritage items in a large number of formats including hard copy documentary items, physical items and their digital surrogates (digitized versions), audio recordings (including analog and born-digital), Film and Video (including analog and born-digital), maps, newspapers, and photographs.

Online access to digital materials has become increasingly important for many Australian government, academic, cultural and commercial organizations. Libraries Tasmania is part of a growing community of institutions using Preservica in the region including The National Archives of Australia (NAA), The National Library of Australia (NLA), the State Library of South Australia (SLSA), Moore College and many other government, cultural, and academic institutions.

日立として初めて小型陽子線治療システムを導入した湘南鎌倉先端医療センターが治療開始

TOKYO, Feb 2, 2022 - (JCN Newswire) - 株式会社日立製作所(以下、日立)は、日立の小型陽子線治療システム(以下、本システム)を導入した、徳洲会グループの湘南鎌倉総合病院「湘南鎌倉先端医療センター」が、2022年1月31日に本システムによる治療を開始したことをお知らせします。本システムは、日立として初めて受注した小型陽子線治療システムとなります。

湘南鎌倉先端医療センターは、全国で約400の医療・介護施設を運営する医療法人徳洲会が、湘南鎌倉総合病院の隣接地に建設した先端的放射線治療をはじめ包括的ながん治療などを提供する医療施設です。これまで同センターが立地する神奈川県には陽子線治療施設がありませんでしたが、設置面積を縮小した小型陽子線治療システムにより限られた敷地内への導入が可能となり、都心に近い陽子線治療施設を実現しています。

導入したシステムの特徴

世界的に陽子線治療システムの小型化への需要が拡大する中、日立は一治療室に特化した陽子線治療システム「PROBEAT-M1」を開発しました。本システムは、機器の配置を最適化することで、従来システムと比較して設置面積を約70%に縮小し、都市部の限られた敷地内での設置を実現するとともに、導入に関わる費用と期間を抑えた小型の陽子線治療システムです。がんの形状に合わせて陽子線を照射できるスポットスキャニング照射技術、高精度な位置決めが可能なコーンビームCT*1を搭載した360度回転ガントリ、動体追跡システム*2などの先進的な技術を備え、小型化と高機能を両立しています。

日立は粒子線がん治療システムのグローバル展開を加速させ、世界のがん治療に貢献していくとともに、ヘルスケア事業のさらなる拡大を図っていきます。

粒子線がん治療について

粒子線がん治療は、放射線によるがん治療法の一つです。水素の原子核や炭素イオンを加速器で光速の約70%に加速させ、腫瘍に集中して照射することでがんを治療するもので、水素の原子核を加速したものを陽子線、炭素イオンを加速したものを重粒子線といいます。治療に伴う痛みがほとんどなく、他の放射線治療に比べて副作用が少ないため、治療と社会生活の両立が可能であり、生活の質(QoL)を維持しつつ、がんを治療できる最先端の治療法として注目されています。

食品用途で用いられるLCO2を輸送する船舶は、これまで欧州、日本で建造および運用されてきた実績がある一方、CCUS(Carbon dioxide Capture, Utilization and Storage)を目的としたLCO2輸送船の建造は世界初となる見込みです。三菱造船は、これまで液化ガス輸送船(LPG・液化石油ガス輸送船、LNG・液化天然ガス輸送船)建造で培った知見や高度なガスハンドリング技術などを活用し、本船に搭載される舶用タンクシステムを含む本船の設計から建造までを一貫して担います。

CO2を回収して転換利用や貯留を行うCCUSは、カーボンニュートラル社会を実現するための有効な手段として注目されています。CO2の排出地と貯留地・活用地が離れていることが多いことから、CO2を安全かつ低コストで輸送する手段としてLCO2船は将来的な需要の拡大が期待されています。世界初のCCUSを目的としたLCO2船の建造の経験を生かし、当社グループが戦略的に取り組むエナジートランジションの事業強化につなげるとともに、従来より取り組んできたCCUSバリューチェーン構築に必要なLCO2船に関する各種技術の開発および提供に引き続き尽力し、CO2エコシステムの構築に貢献します。

三菱造船は、目指す成長戦略「海洋Future Stream」において、再生可能エネルギーと炭素循環による「海の脱炭素社会」、自律化・電化による「海洋空間有効活用社会」を描き、海に関わるイノベーションの「知恵出し」とその「カタチ化」の実現を掲げています。その一環として従来よりLCO2船の開発とその事業化を積極的に推進しているところであり、海洋システムインテグレーターとして脱炭素化実現を目指しています。

三菱電機、愛・地球博記念公園における自動運転の実証実験に参画

TOKYO, Feb 2, 2022 - (JCN Newswire) - 三菱電機株式会社は、2021年度愛知県「自動運転社会実装モデル構築事業」に参画し、株式会社NTTドコモ、アイサンテクノロジー株式会社(以下、アイサンテクノロジー)、株式会社ティアフォー他と共同で、愛・地球博記念公園(愛知県長久手市)において、愛知高速交通東部丘陵線(以下、リニモ)の公園西駅から園内目的地へのシームレスな移動の実現を目指す実証実験を実施します。

当社は、この実証実験において公園内6カ所の乗降ポイントへ停留所端末を設置し、オンデマンド運行管制システムを提供します。停留所端末から入力された利用者の乗車申込み情報に応じて走行ルート、運行ダイヤ、運行車両台数をリアルタイムかつ柔軟に算出し、複数の車両に対し自動的に最適な指示をすることにより、園内における利用者の効率的かつ安全な移動を実現します。

当社のオンデマンド運行管制システムの特長

1. 複数車両への配車・運行指示の自動化で、運行業務の省力化を実現
- 独自のリアルタイムオンデマンド運行管理技術により、複数の自動走行車両への運行指示や停留所端末への配車情報配信を全自動化し、管制員・運転員を必要としない運行を実現

2. 状況変化に応じたリアルタイムオンデマンド運行管制で、利用者の利便性を向上
- 停留所端末からの乗車申込み情報に基づき、4つの運行モード(定時定路線型の通常運行、スルー運行、迂回・近道運行、増便・減便運行)を自動で設定。待ち時間や移動時間を短縮でき、利用者の利便性を向上

3. 停留所端末で現地での使いやすさを向上し、利用者を拡大
- 停留所端末による乗車申込みと目的地の設定が可能
- スマートフォン等の専用アプリケーションを導入せず、より手軽に利用でき、利用者を拡大

実証実験参画の背景、ねらい、今後の予定

少子高齢化・人口減少に伴うドライバーの高齢化・人手不足により、安心・安全で効率的な交通を実現する自動運転サービスが注目されています。当社は、都市だけでなく観光地などの地域が抱える多様な社会課題の解決を目指し、自動運転に対応したオンデマンド運行管制システムの開発と実証実験に取り組んでいます。

本実証実験は、2021年3月に当社神戸製作所の構内で実施した実証実験※に続くもので、当社として初の実環境での実証実験となります。

本実験で得られた成果に当社のシミュレーション技術や予測技術を組み合わせ、さらなる運行の効率化と利用者の利便性向上を図ります。また、モビリティサービス関連企業との連携を進めることで、自動運転サービスを早期に実現し、社会課題の解決に貢献します。
